Epoxy Novolac Resin (EPN/ECN)
Epoxy Novolac Resin (EPN/ECN) is a multifunctional epoxy resin derived from novolac phenol-formaldehyde condensates, providing high epoxy functionality (f > 2) and superior thermal and chemical resistance after cure. Its dense crosslink network yields adhesives and coatings with outstanding performance at elevated temperatures and in aggressive chemical environments. Novolac epoxies are commonly used in demanding industrial adhesive, electrical laminate, and chemical-resistant coating applications.
