110:. So, the corrosion and general chemical resistance of epoxy granite to most common solvents, acids, alkalis, and cutting fluids is superior to steel and alloys and does not require constant painting. Epoxy granite material has an internal damping factor up to ten times better than cast iron, up to three times better than natural granite, and up to thirty times better than steel fabricated structure. The method of casting compared to steel allows easier inclusion of inserts etc. and thus reduced machining of the finished casting and reduced assembly time by incorporating multiple components into one casting. Polymer cast resins use very little energy to produce, and the casting process is done at room temperature.

granite. Due to the lack of long-term stability and very poor damping properties, steel fabricated structures are seldom used where high precision is required. Good-quality cast iron that is stress-relieved and annealed will give the structure dimensional stability, and can be cast into complex shapes, but needs an expensive machining process to form precision surfaces after casting. Natural granite has a higher damping capacity than cast iron, but similarly to cast iron can be labor-intensive and expensive to machine and finish. The traditional market for epoxy granite is to replace iron and steel in these applications.

tightly packs the aggregate together. Mechanical and thermo-mechanical properties can be improved further if fiber is used as well as the granite. Other resins in addition to the epoxy may also be used instead of fibers to improve properties such as water absorption. If porosity is controlled, damping effects can be improved further. Threaded inserts, steel plates, and coolant pipes can be cast-in during the casting process. To achieve an even higher degree of versatility, linear rails, ground slide-ways, and motor mounts can be replicated or grouted-in, therefore eliminating the need for any post-cast machining.

Machine tools and other high-precision machines rely upon high stiffness, long-term stability, and excellent damping characteristics of the base material for their static and dynamic performance. The most widely used materials for these structures are cast iron, welded steel fabrications, and natural

Epoxy resins and granite, specifically waste granite dust, may be used in other applications such as floor coatings. Waste granite filings are produced in the mining industry, and the low density means this can be easily dispersed by winds and thus distributed in the environment. Research is being

Precision granite castings are produced by mixing granite aggregates (which are crushed, washed, and dried) with an epoxy resin system at ambient temperature (i.e., cold curing process). Quartz aggregate filler can also be used in the composition. Vibratory compaction during the molding process

The vibration damping of epoxy granite is often claimed to be superior to that of steel or cast iron It is also well known that iron and steel and alloys corrode or rust, whereas epoxy is often used to prevent
