What kind of effect can crosslinking agents have? When people first hear this term, they may feel unfamiliar with this product and not know what it is actually used for. If everyone has attended high school, then they must have taken high school chemistry classes, where they must have been exposed to knowledge related to organic molecules. We know that organic molecules are long and have a relatively large molecular weight. Some organic molecules may be very long. In the process of human utilization, it may not be easy to make these organic molecular materials into solid state. For example, resin contains a large number of organic molecules. How can this resin be transformed from liquid to solid state?

A common function of crosslinking agents is to transform tree branches from liquid to solid, which is a very miraculous functional transformation. Even if this value changes from liquid to solid, it still does not have a significant impact on its quality. This is exactly the role that this product plays in this process. After using this product, some of the long organic molecules in the resin can be entangled with each other, allowing them to transform from liquid to solid in a short period of time. This enables the resin to be produced into composite materials. Friends who are familiar with fiberglass may have a deeper understanding of this. In the production process of fiberglass, it is necessary to manually apply the resin. The staff does not directly apply the resin on the fiberglass, but adds a component to the resin, which is the curing agent, which is the product introduced today. After adding this component to the resin, it is then applied and compacted on the fiberglass. After waiting for about ten minutes, the resin will slowly change from liquid to solid. Thus, the fiberglass material is made into shape. This is a magical effect that this product can achieve, which is to tightly bind some chemical components together, so that these chemical components can cause some changes in their physical state without changing their chemical properties.


The general role that crosslinking agents can play is briefly discussed here. Of course, this product has a wide range of applications, not only for producing fiberglass, but also for use in various fields such as dyeing and printing, decoration, and furniture production.
