Epoxy refers to polyepoxides.
The word comes from "epi" meaning "in addition to" and "oxide" referring to a compound including oxygen.
Disposal
Burning
Burning epoxy can release toxic fumes depending on the specific chemicals involved in the epoxy resin. Epoxy resins typically contain components like bisphenol-A (BPA) or bisphenol-F (BPF), which can emit harmful fumes when burned, including carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, and various volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
