EPON Liquid Epoxy Resins & Blends

EPON™ liquid epoxy resins are the most important products sold in the epoxy resin market, and one of the foundations of Hexion Specialty Chemicals. The basis of the product line is EPON Resin 828 which is a liquid resin also described as diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol A. This key resin is complemented in the range by EPON Resin 862, the diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol F, and a full series of modified liquid epoxy resins, epoxy resin blends and purified epoxy resins.

See the "Technical Data Sheets" section for information on the individual products.

Application

EPON liquid epoxy resins when properly formulated and cured provide an inert end-product with a unique combination of properties. They are suitable for use in high performance applications such as coatings , adhesives, civil engineering, electronic and electrical insulation, composites and fiber sizing.

See the "Applications & Formulations" section for Systems and Starting Formulations additional information.
