Description

Synthetic resins, or polymers, are formed by a chemical reaction between two or more substances. Examples are acrylics, alkyds, vinyls, epoxies, polyesters, polyolefins, phenolics, Polystyrene, and Cellulose acetate. Synthetic resins, are becoming increasingly available and have applications in nearly every aspect of life. Their wide range of properties and forms provide plastics, paints, textiles, films, coatings, adhesives, fabrications, cushions, and protectors.
