An application designed to compute the necessary quantities of two-part epoxy mixtures for various projects exists for both mobile and desktop platforms. Functionality typically involves inputting project dimensions or volume requirements, specifying the epoxy resin and hardener combination being used, and then receiving precise calculations for the amounts of each component needed to achieve the desired ratio and overall volume. For example, a user intending to create a 12-inch diameter circular epoxy table top would input the diameter and desired thickness into the application, select their specific epoxy product from a list, and the application would generate the exact milliliters of resin and hardener necessary.
Accurate proportioning of resin and hardener is crucial for successful epoxy projects. The application helps to avoid errors that can lead to incomplete curing, improper hardness, or undesirable surface finishes. Its benefits include minimizing material waste by calculating precisely the required amounts, reducing the risk of project failure due to incorrect mixing ratios, and saving time by automating a task that can otherwise be cumbersome and prone to error. Early applications of similar calculation tools emerged with the rise in popularity of epoxy-based arts, crafts and construction, addressing the need for precision in these endeavors.
