Epoxy or Polyepoxide is a thermosetting polymer formed from reaction of an epoxide "resin" with polyamine "Hardener". These systems use a 4:1 by Rvolume mixing ratio, and dry quickly providing a tough, protective coating with excellent hardness.

Their low volatility and water cleanup makes them useful for factory cast iron, cast steel, cast aluminum applications and reduces exposure and flammability issues associated with solvent-borne coatings.

They are usually used in industrial and automotive applications since they are more heat resistant than latex-based and alkyd-based paints. Epoxy paints have a wide range of applications in paints including:

Epoxy paints have a wide range of applications in paints including:

• Anticorrosive Zinc Phosphate primers.
• Epoxy for garage floors.
• Solvent less epoxy for heavy duty applications and for food processing plants.
• Coal tar epoxy for underground tanks.
• Water Based Epoxy for applications where solvent is not desired.
