What is resin

Resin is a polymer with a large molecular chains that is naturally or artificially produced. Resin is a raw material component of the coating industry and the glass fiber industry, which is classified according to its structure. The main task of the resin in the paint industry is as follows:

  1. Paint film formation
  2. The role of the substrate and paint matrix in which the other materials, such as filler pigments are dispersed
  3. Expected properties of paint such as chemical resistance, optical resistance and so on

Resin classification: As mentioned, the resins are classified in terms of structure. However, the category can be classified in terms of location, resin properties, etc., but the main categories of resins are structurally related to their application to the description Below.

Resins can be classified from different perspectives. The types of resins are very diverse, as mentioned in this post.

The most commonly used resins in Coating Production:

  1. Epoxy resin
  2. Epoxy hardener
  3. Acrylic resin
  4. Polyurethane resin
  5. Acrylic resin

Highly used resins in fiberglass:

  1. Isophthalic polyester resin.
  2. Ortho-plastic polyester resin.
  3. Vinyl Ester Resin.
  4. Epoxy resin.
  5. Phenolic resin.

The most widely used resins in powder coating

  1. Powdered epoxy resin.
  2. Powder polyester resin.

Manufacturing of industrial resins

Usually most resins are produced as a centrifuge and process. In the resin process, a chemical reaction is carried out inside the reactor, which can be thermostable or thermosetting. The reaction inside the reactor is a polymerization polymerization reaction and the molecular mass is controlled to prevent the gelation process. The production of industrial resins can be coupled with the byproduct byproduct production, which should be done in separator separation process.

Resin hardening mechanism

Several mechanisms exist for hardening of resins and film formation.

  1. Chemical reaction at ambient temperature in two-component resins such as epoxy and polyurethane.
  2. Chemical reaction at high temperatures such as gravel, melamine and urea.
  3. Reaction with air oxygen in single-colored dyes of alkyd.
  4. Mechanism and evaporation of solvent and formation of paint film like vinyl dyes.
  5. Reaction with humidity such as polyurethane and single-component systems.
  6. Polymeric reaction between resin monomers by the starting material, such as polyester resins.

Industrial applications of resins

  1. Paint Production.
  2. Fiberglass production.
  3. Glue industry.
  4. Composite industry and printing on cans.
  5. water refinery.
  6. Production of industrial frames.
  7. Refractory products.
  8. The automotive industry produces anti-wear parts like brakes.
  9. Cold and thermal insulators such as polyurethane insulators.
  10. Sofa and armchairs such as chairs and artificial wood foam.

Manapolymer Industrial Resins

Mana Polymer began manufacturing industrial resins since 1996. In this regard, with the launch of a resin production line including reactors, boilers, heat exchangers, etc. In addition to the production of industrial paints, resin production was also implemented at Mana Polymer Company.

Industrial resins with technical knowledge available:

  1. Epoxy resin (solid, liquid, powder)
  2. Saturated polyester resins (orthophthalic, iso-phthalic)
  3. Alkyd resins.
  4. Acrylic resins.
