=== Aerospace applications === In the aerospace industry, epoxy is used as a structural matrix material which is then reinforced by fiber. Typical fiber reinforcements include [[glass]], [[carbon]], [[Kevlar]], and [[boron]]. Epoxies are also used as a structural [[glue]]. Materials like [[wood]], and others that are 'low-tech' are glued with epoxy resin. Epoxies generally out-perform most other resin types in terms of mechanical properties and resistance to environmental degradation.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://netcomposites.com/guide/resin-systems/epoxy-resins/ |title=Epoxy Resins |website=netcomposites.com |access-date=2019-07-29 |archive-date=2018-10-17 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181017011914/https://netcomposites.com/guide-tools/guide/resin-systems/epoxy-resins |url-status=usurped }}</ref>
