Dear student,
Any of a class of thermosetting polymers, polyethers built up from monomers with and ether group that takes the form of a three-membered epoxide ring. The familiar two-part epoxy adhesives consist of are resin with epoxide rings at the ends of its molecules and a curing agent containing amines When mixed, these react to yield, after curing, a complex network with ether groups linking the monomers. Stable, tough, and resistant to corrosive chemicals, epoxies are excellent adhesives and useful surface coatings.
Here are some things that epoxy resin is used in:
General purpose adhesives
