In this video, I conducted an epoxy pouring experiment, casting 8 gallons of epoxy resin in a single pour, exceeding the manufacturer's recommended limits. The pour reached up to 11" thick, four times ...

I broke all the rules - putting epoxy resin to the test

Epoxy is the family of basic components or cured end products of epoxy resins, also known as polyepoxides, a class of reactive prepolymers and polymers which contain epoxide groups. The epoxide functional group is also collectively called epoxy. [1] The IUPAC name for an epoxide group is an oxirane.

An epoxy is a two-part adhesive that forms when you mix epoxy resin and hardener. The two substances are stored in different containers and are only mixed together when you’re ready for gluing – which you can do using a double syringe, for example.
