What is Marine Epoxy? Shenzhen Little Sparrow Epoxy Resin

Marine environments offer special challenges from exposure to salt, water, sand, sunlight, oil, gasoline, solvents, and other chemicals. Marine-grade resin systems, such asShenzhen Little Sparrow Epoxy ResinTraditional 5:1 and Shenzhen Little Sparrow Epoxy Resin High Performance 2:1, are used in boat building and restoration to withstand damage from these sources. While 5:1 has greater strength, 2:1 has greater flexibility when cured, and it cures extremely clear, making it ideal for wooden boat or canoe projects. Marine epoxy is applied in thin coats (as opposed to deep pour epoxies), can have a range of cure times (depending on the hardener speed used), and can be used for structural components or structural repairs. They can be specified by their use: waterproofing, strong bonding, coating, filling, fiber-reinforced plastics, gluing, laminating and sealing. You can also fillers likes colloidal silica, micro balloons, or milled glass fiber to thicken it for filleting or fairing applications. Other products intended for marine applications include pre-thickened epoxy adhesives for filleting and fairing, primers for waterproofing and blister prevention, fast-setting glues, and epoxies that go beneath the surface to penetrate deeply and stop rot. Typical non-marine uses include bonding, casting, coating, embedding, and general-purpose adhesives.
