This wide range of epoxy adhesives and polyester resins is produced mostly as two-component systems. Curing is effected by the reactions of a resin and a hardener.

These adhesives are sold as emulsions and are ready to use.

The solvents are usually highly flammable (hydrocarbons, esters or ketones) but are sometimes non-flammable chlorinated hydrocarbons. This risk assessment also covers paint strippers that use similar solvents.

Cross-cut (Mitre), radial arm saw and chop saws all use circular blades.
