Synthetic Resins Technology Handbook
Synthetic resin is typically manufactured using a chemical polymerization process. This process then results
in the creation of polymers that are more stable and homogeneous than naturally occurring resin. Since they
are more stable and are cheaper, various forms of synthetic resin are used in a variety of products such as
plastics, paints, varnishes, and textiles. There are various kinds of synthetic resins; acetal resins, amino
resins, phenolic resins, epoxy resins, fufuryl alcohol: resins, fluorocarbon resins, polyurethane resins, etc.
Resins are polymeric compound which are available in nature and are also manufactured by synthetic routes.
Some resins are also manufactured by partial modification of natural precursor polymer by chemical. The
classic variety is epoxy resin, manufactured through polymerization, used as a thermoset polymer for
adhesives and composites. Epoxy resin is two times stronger than concrete, seamless and waterproof.
Various thermoplastic thermosetting polymers, including elastomers, have been incorporated to modify the
properties for the cured epoxy resin products. Elastomers provide greater elongation and impact strength.
Polysulfides, the most commonly used elastomer to flexibilise epoxy resins. Heat resistant polymers are
employed for the various uses; heat flame resistant fibers plus ultra high strength, high modulus fibers; films,
laminating varnishes and wire enamels; structural adhesives and molding powders. The Synthetic Resin
Manufacturing industry initially enjoyed strong growth over its earlier history as plastics began to increasingly
replace traditional materials such as wood, leather and metal. Plastic is estimated to have been the most
used material globally.
The book basically deals with new raw materials for cost reduction of alkyds and unsaturated polyester,
amino resins, polyester based resins, enzymatic synthesis of phenolic copolymers, radiation curable hybrid
formulation, self polishing anti fouling, epoxy resins, epoxy resins from methyl epichlorohydrin, fillers,
reinforcements, and other additives, cardanol modified epoxy resins, baking coatings from epoxy derived
from cardanol, phenolic resins, polyurethane resins, aqueous polyurethane dispersion technology, heat
resistant resins, etc.
The resin have wide industrial uses like in lacquers, paints, textiles, varnishes, printing inks and cosmetic etc.
this book contains formulae, processes and applications of various resins. This book will be very resourceful
to new entrepreneurs, consultants, technical institutions, libraries and for those who wants to venture into this
field.
