Epoxy Resins, Hardeners & Systems
at Ressichem
Ressichem manufactures epoxy products in liquid, solid, solutions, blends and multifunc-
tional forms and markets these under the Zepoxy brand. These high quality epoxies find
wide application in the automotive, construction, heavy engineering, transport, electron-
ics, food and beverage packing, coatings, composites, adhesives, aviation, aerospace,
wind energy and many other industries.
Epoxies are 2 component polymer plastics formed through series of chemical reactions.
Generally, gel times range from 3 min to 16 hours after 2 components are mixed for
formulated epoxies.
