Epoxi resins
Epoxi resin offers more possibilities than almost any other material. In combination with wood, a wide range of interesnting possible designs can be made: Wood coated with epoxy resin as a protective layer, wood tables combines with resin like the one that can be seen in the main photo of the page, and much more.
Epoxy resin is a two-component material that hardens in a few hours when mixed, and can then be cut, ground, and polished. Unlike polyester resins and polyurethane resins, epoxi resin shrinks much less during cure. All other products can shrink from the wood after a few hours or days are therefore not suitable. There are
products for different applications and here it is important to choose the right product.
There are different types of consistency:
- Low thickness epoxy resins: Intended for coating layers.
- Thick epoxy resins: Intended for function molds or resin frames.
There are big differences after hardening of the dough. Some products are quite soft after curing, other are even scratch resistant and even more temperature resistant. For utilitarian items like kitchen counters, table tops, and other items that are exposed to higher mechanical stress, it is worth purchasing a higher quality resin.
