The Mission: To acquire a solid knowledge and understanding of epoxy resins - from their historical development to how their properties are determined by their chemical structure, through to the special attributes underpinning their use as binders in various application areas. This affords a way of gaining a current overview of this important class of raw materials. Essential for any formulator of competitive modern paint systems.
The Audience: Newcomers, career-changers, students and professionals wanting to broaden and deepen their knowledge and who seek key background information to assist them with the selection and use of modern epoxy resins. For those wanting not only to consider the specifics of the underlying chemistry, but also to learn about the practical uses of epoxies.
The Value: This book serves on one hand as a reference on the chemistry of epoxies and their properties and on the other as a monograph on the industrial applications of epoxy resins, both with and without epoxy groups, in coatings. It presents a clear and vivid overview of the current status of epoxy use and their combinations in various paint systems.
Aufbau, Struktur und Eigenschaften der Epoxidharze werden für lösemittelhaltige als auch für wässrige Systeme in dem neuen Fachbuch Epoxidharze dargestellt. Die 1K- und die 2K-Systeme werden beleuchtet und die lacktechnischen Grundlagen effizient hervorgehoben. Dem Leser werden unterschiedliche Anwendungsmöglichkeiten der Epoxidharzsysteme und deren Vor- und Nachteile nahegebracht. Außerdem verschafft das Buch einen Einblick in anwendungstechnische Anforderungen und deren Überprüfung.
