Structural Epoxy Adhesives Formulation Optimization - Part 1
Get advanced knowledge on how to combine raw materials used in the formulation of epoxy-based structural adhesives to optimize durability,...
Get advanced knowledge on how to combine raw materials used in the formulation of epoxy-based structural adhesives to optimize durability, toughness and thermal-oxidative resistance. Our speaker John Bishopp has a long and proven track record experience in formulation and he will now pass his hands-on knowledge on to you.
In this session (PART 1), John will share his know-how on how to select the right ingredient among similar epoxy resins, hardeners, and tougheners to be as close as possible of the desired performance from start.
In-depth discussion on performance will be covered in PART 2.
