  2. Resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin

    A resin is a solid or highly viscous liquid that can be converted into a polymer. [1] Resins may be biological or synthetic in origin, but are typically harvested from plants. Resins are mixtures of organic compounds, and predominantly terpenes. Well known resins include amber, hashish, frankincense, myrrh and the animal-derived resin, shellac.

  3. Synthetic resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_resin

    Vinyl ester resin is an example of a synthetic resin. [1] Synthetic resins are industrially produced resins, typically viscous substances that convert into rigid polymers by the process of curing. In order to undergo curing, resins typically contain reactive end groups, [2] such as acrylates or epoxides.

  4. Epoxy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy

    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.

  5. Alkyd - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkyd

    Alkyd resins are usually classed as long oil, [11] medium oil and short oil. [12] These terms represent the oil length in the resin. [ 13 ] Alkyds are also modified with phenolic resin , styrene , vinyl toluene , acrylic monomers (to make them dry more quickly) and isocyanates to produce a polyurethane modified alkyd.

  6. Acrylic resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrylic_resin

    An acrylic resin is a thermoplastic or thermosetting plastic substance typically derived from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and acrylate monomers such as butyl acrylate and methacrylate monomers such as methyl methacrylate. Thermoplastic acrylics designate a group of acrylic resins typically containing both a high molecular weight and a high ...

  7. Ion-exchange resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion-exchange_resin

    Ion-exchange resin beads. An ion-exchange resin or ion-exchange polymer is a resin or polymer that acts as a medium for ion exchange, that is also known as an ionex. [1] It is an insoluble matrix (or support structure) normally in the form of small (0.25–1.43 mm radius) microbeads, usually white or yellowish, fabricated from an organic polymer substrate.

  9. Resin casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin_casting

    Alternately, resin casting may be accomplished with a resin plus a nearly equal amount of a "hardener" liquid (as in many epoxy resin or polyester resin systems), which functionally contains a second polymer, for use in forming a final product plastic which is a copolymer. Copolymers contain two different alternating chemical entities in the ...
