Epoxy Resins with Carbon Fiber: The Perfect Match!

Carbon fibers are strong, lightweight, and fatigue-resistant fibers used to build composite materials.  By combining carbon fibers with epoxies, manufacturers can create incredibly hard, durable materials that outperform both individual material types. Composites are a relatively new production material compared to materials like aluminum, iron, and steel, but there are many benefits in choosing to […]

A Guide to Industrial Concrete Flooring: Epoxy Coatings & Joint Filler

Epoxy coatings are used to create attractive flooring that is highly durable and can stand up to high levels of impact and abrasion. They are produced using a combination of polymer resins and hardeners to result in a chemical bond with the concrete. There are many types of epoxy coatings, including a wide array of […]

Epoxy Potting Compound: What You Need to Know

Electronic assemblies need to be protected from factors like vibration, shock, thermal dissipation, moisture, and corrosive agents. This protection can be achieved through a process called potting. Potting involves the process of filling an electronic assembly with a compound that provides permanent added protection to the assembly. There are several potting compounds to choose from, […]

Polyurethane vs. Epoxy

Although many people use the terms polyurethane and epoxy interchangeably, they are actually two distinct types of coating with their own properties and advantages.

Applications of High-Temperature Epoxies

Epoxy resins adhere and cure on hard surfaces, providing a versatile polymer adhesive. Beyond their temperature-resistance capabilities, high-temperate epoxies feature many favorable qualities, including resistances to moisture, chemicals, impact, and corrosion.  High-temperature epoxies maintain their properties even when exposed to extreme temperatures. Harsh industrial environments rely on high-temperature epoxy coatings over other adhesive types because […]

Selecting the Right Epoxy Resin for Your Application

Epoxy resin has many industrial applications and possesses greater thermal and chemical resistance – as well as strengthened mechanical properties – than other types of resin. When in liquid form, epoxy resin is poured into a mold or painted over a material in layers to create a protective outer coating. After curing, the material hardens […]

What To Look For In Oil & Gas Epoxy Grout

High-quality epoxy grouting solutions are critical for the secure installation and stabilization of on and offshore oil and gas exploratory equipment and structures. There are a wide range of epoxy grouts available that exceed the bond strength, chemical resistance, and alignment performance of more traditional cementitious grouts. In this blog, we’ll cover the basics of epoxy […]
