# Epoxy resins: Relationships

Source page: https://www.materialinsights.org/chemicals/epoxy/links/

Every element and industry that Epoxy resins is linked to, and how. Each pair has its own card explaining the relationships between the two.

- [Bisphenol A](https://www.materialinsights.org/links/bisphenol-a-and-epoxy-resins/): Epoxy resin is the second largest outlet for bisphenol A after polycarbonate: standard liquid epoxy is BPA reacted with epichlorohydrin, a chlorine and propylene derivative, so demand for coatings, laminates and wind blades pulls on BPA. Polycarbonate took nearly two-thirds of BPA demand in 2020, so epoxy makers usually take a BPA price that polycarbonate demand sets. *(researched)*
- [Electrical equipment](https://www.materialinsights.org/links/electrical-equipment-and-epoxy-resins/): Epoxy is the solid insulation of the grid: transformer windings, switchgear parts and insulators are cast in it, so a build-out of transmission and distribution pulls on resin supply, and trade duties on resin feed straight into equipment makers' costs. *(researched)*
