Applicable Base Polymer Properties

Because of their thermosetting molecular structure, epoxy resins exhibit excellent tensile strength. Epoxy resins offer excellent resistance to oil, moisture, and many solvents. Low shrinkage on curing and high resistance to creep under prolonged stress are characteristics of many high quality epoxy resins. Epoxy resins have no evolution of volatiles during cure and are useful in gap-filling applications.
