Why Use Epoxy.com Products in “Green” Buildings?

August 20, 2012

110614_2044_EpoxyChipFl10.pngEpoxy.com’s 100% solid products (which are most of our product line) are included in many “Green” buildings. The logic for that is this:

1. Epoxy.com 100% solid products have  no VOCs. So you are reducing the carbon emissions.

2. Typical Epoxy.com 100% solid systems have done their job for decades, and there is no reason to believe they will not last for decades more. I personally have jobs that I installed with them that go back as much as a third of a century, that are not even starting to show signs that they will need replacement. That is the ultimate in reuse.

3. There is no need to recycle a product that can be reused for decades, but you can use recycled materials like glass aggregate in the epoxy matrix.

Epoxy.com encourages our customers to order material as they need it and to use all their materials before their expiration. That is why we do not require large stocking orders from new dealers, like most other companies. We want our customers to use up material they buy from us and not have any for it run out of shelf life. However, if Epoxy.com products do run out of shelf life, they are typically mixed and cured before disposal as is consitered in under most if not all local regulations as inert as common trash.

Which is Better, Epoxy Injection or Urethane Injection?

August 15, 2012

Which is better, epoxy injection or urethane injection?  That is a little like asking which is better a 1/2 inch wrench or a 3/4 inch wrench.  The answer is whichever one is the Right Product for the Right Job.  This blog will explain this in more detail.

Epoxy injection should always be used in cracks where two sections were never meant to be separated.  For example a crack that took place in a piece of concrete that was intended to be monolithic (single pour), or where two sections of wood need to be bonded together. These repairs should always be by epoxy injection.

Urethane injection should always be used where the two separate members (pieces of structure) were never intended to be attached firmly but need to be waterproofed.   Consider for example, a sewer pipe and a basement wall (between a pipe and the concrete where it passes through the concrete).

Engineering determinations are required in places like a cold joint or the space between two sections of precast concrete.  If the structure is better off by the two members being bonded together, then epoxy injection should always be used.  If the structure is better off by the two members being able to have slight differential movement from each other and/or should never be bonded together, then urethane injection should always be used.
