 There are many types of resin, including natural and synthetic resins, and resins with specific properties: 

Epoxy resin

A versatile resin with high strength and durability, often used in adhesives, coatings, and electronics. Epoxy is also self-leveling and easy for beginners to use.

Polyurethane resin

A flexible and tough resin that resists abrasion and impact, often used in adhesives, coatings, and elastomers.

Polyester resin

A thermosetting resin with good mechanical properties and chemical resistance, often used in fiberglass composites, boatbuilding, and automotive parts. 

Silicone resin

A heat-resistant resin with excellent electrical insulation properties, often used in electronics, coatings, and mold-making. 

Acrylic resin

A transparent and rigid resin that is weather resistant and optically clear, often used in automotive parts, lighting fixtures, and as a coating material. 

Polycarbonate resin

A thermoplastic polymer that is transparent, impact-resistant, stain-resistant, and heat-resistant. 

Resins can also be classified as thermoplastic or thermosetting. Thermoplastic resins remain plastic after heat treatment, while heat-setting resins become insoluble and heat-infusible.
