For adhesives serving the Construction and Infrastructure market, Westlake Epoxy offers a wide range of epoxy systems that bond metal, concrete, plastics and glass. Our waterborne, solvent-free, high solids and solvent borne systems featuring EPON™ epoxy resins and EPIKURE™ curing agents combined with HELOXY™ modifiers help produce adhesives with:

• Good adhesion on various substrates
• Fast cure, even at low temperatures
• Solvent resistance
• Enhanced mechanical properties
• Good flexibility and impact resistance
• Low viscosity
• Electrical resistance
• Excellent water resistance
• High Tg
• Range of pot life
• Low yellowing

These adhesives are useful in a wide variety of applications, even where a high degree of thermal and chemical resistance and water impermeability are required in addition to good mechanical properties. Examples include:

• Bonding prefabricated concrete roadways
• Concrete pile splicing
• Bonding cable trays to concrete
• Traffic marking
• Tile adhesives
• Steel/concrete connections (metal fixtures to concrete structures such as rail-to-ground)
