THIS AMAZING FLOORS ARE BUILT WITH A CHEMICAL MIXTURE MAINLY MADE FROM
Epoxy Resin
Epoxy resins are low molecular weight pre-polymers or higher molecular weight polymers which normally contain at least two epoxide groups. The epoxide group is also sometimes referred to as a glycidyl or oxirane group.
A wide range of epoxy resins are produced industrially. The raw materials for epoxy resin production are today largely petroleum derived, although some plant derived sources are now becoming commercially available
Applications
-Paints and coatings
-Adhesives
-Industrial tooling and composites
-A growing use of epoxy resins is in the fabrication of wind turbine blades
-Epoxy resin formulations are important in the electronics industry, and are employed in motors, generators, transformers, switchgear, bushings, insulators, printed wiring boards (PWB), and semiconductor encapsulants.
-Epoxy resins are excellent electrical insulators and protect electrical components from short circuiting, dust and moisture.
-Epoxies can be used to plug selective layers in a reservoir which are producing excessive brine
-Epoxy systems are used in industrial tooling applications to produce molds, master models, laminates, castings, fixtures, and other industrial production aids
-Epoxies can be used to plug selective layers in a reservoir which are producing excessive brine
Water-soluble epoxies such as Durcupan are commonly used for embedding electron microscope samples in plastic so they may be sectioned (sliced thin) with a micro tome and then imaged.
-Epoxy resin, mixed with pigment, may be used as a painting medium, by pouring layers on top of each other to form a complete picture. It is also used in jewelry, as a doming resin for decorations and labels, and in decoupage type applications for art, counter tops, and tables.
