A NOTE ON A LESS WELL KNOWN EPOXIDE RESIN

This short paper describes the potential of a relatively new epoxide based resin, Petropoxy 154, for ceramic thin sectioning. It can be used for all stages of the thin sectioning process and has given good results on a wide variety of ceramic types. Its greatest advantages over other methods include its low viscosity, its short cure time, its high bonding strength, and its long shelf life.
