Copolymer means formed from to different chmeicals. This is the structure of unmodified epoxy prepolymer. Resin consists of monomers or short chain polymers with an epoxide group at either end. The hardner consists of polyamine monomers. When these to compounds are mixed together, the amine groups react ith the epoxide groups to form a covalent bond. Each NH, amine group can react with an epoxide group so that the resulting polymer is heavily crosslinked, thus rigid and strong. * Heating during the curing process usually helps but also it heats up by itself since It’s an exothermic reaction and a substantial amount of epoxy putty in your hand could warm up pretty quickly. * * Liquid epoxy is widely used as heavy duty paints and coatings for metal surfaces. Because it dries quickly without having to heat and dry it so its more energy efficient, its UV resistant, and gives a good protective coating with excellent hardness. Adhesive is probably its most common use. Comes out as epoxy putty for consumers. It can be used as adhesive on surfaces such as wood, metal, glass, stone and plastics. Used as engineering adhesive in the construction of aircraft, automobiles, bicycles, boats, golf clubs, skis, snowboards, surfboards. Unlike glue or super glue, its heat resistant. It can be used to produce molds, castings, lamintates, and other industrial production aids, replacing metal, wood and other traditional materials to improve efficiency (lower cost of materials, shortened time in process) Excellent electric insulator so used to protect circuit board and such. From the other presentation on aerogel, its also a good insulator and lighter in mass by many factors. But epoxy is easy and cheap to make. * * * * * * JB Steel Weld seemed to work better for the purpose of tensile strength. * * * SRJC, Engr 45, Fall 2010 Jinwoo Lee Steven Flores Christian Rosko Overview of the presentation Introduction Applications Variations Our little Experiment The End Introduct
