EPOXY vs POLYESTER

Advanced Resin Technologies

Achieve Superior Durability & Cost Efficiency with Our Resins

At Composite Integration, we specialise in utilising both epoxy and polyester resins to set new benchmarks in composite manufacturing. Our expertise ensures that each project benefits from the optimal material properties these advanced resins offer.

Read on to discover the comparative benefits of epoxy versus polyester resins.

Understanding Epoxy Resins

Epoxy resins are renowned for their superior mechanical properties, excellent adhesion, and high heat and chemical resistance. These qualities make them ideal for applications requiring robust and durable composites. Our state-of-the-art epoxy formulations are specifically designed to enhance performance across various industrial sectors, including aerospace, automotive, and marine industries.

Key Advantages of Epoxy Resins:

Superior Strength
Offers enhanced tensile, shear, and flexural strength
High Temperature Resistance
Mains performance integrity under high thermal stress.
Excellent Chemical Resistance
Withstands harsh chemicals and environmental conditions.
Low Shrinkage
Minimises internal stresses during curing, promoting dimensional stability.
