EPX FRP

Two-Component Solvent-Free Epoxy-Based Fabric Resin

EPX FRP is a two-component, solvent-free, epoxy-based resin used in the application of the Ticm Carbon Fabric product for the reinforcement of concrete and wood structural members.

Unique Structure

EPX FRP was developed in the laboratories of Ticem Advanced Construction Technologies following many years of R&D activities conducted as part of a university-industry collaboration. Ticem products are manufactured in Turkey by Sözeri Construction Elements under license from Ticem Advanced Construction Technologies.

Applications

In building retrofitting, it is used in conjunction with carbon fiber fabric to reinforce structural elements and improve seismic performance by increasing the load-bearing capacity of structures.
It is used to reinforce damaged buildings and structures, as well as to rehabilitate older reinforced concrete buildings where the reinforcing steel has corroded.
The use of carbon fabric and epoxy resin in the reinforcement of buildings, bridges, domes, and similar structures is a traditional reinforcement method based on the high durability and strength inherent in carbon’s natural structure.
