Resins are vicious, liquid polymers derived from organic or synthetic sources. Their benefit centres on their ability to transition from a liquid into a customisable solid, homogeneous structure. In polymer chemistry and materials science, resin is a solid or highly viscous substance of plant or synthetic origin that is typically convertible into polymers. Plants secrete resins for their protective benefits in response to injury. The resin protects the plant from insects and pathogens. A clear example of the longevity and durability of resin is the encapsulation of insects in amber. Many of these naturally occurring resins have practical uses today […]
