Economics and addition
The Economic section starts out stating that Epoxy is a $15bn/year market. Later in the article, it is stated that due to the economic recession, epoxy has dropped to $15.8 bn/year. (Wish the recession treated me like that!)  What was the actual peak yearly market of epoxy between 2005 and present?

The "Wind Power" section covers the process that is also used for making aircraft propeller blades and wings, R/C aircraft wings, and similar airfoils, should this be mentioned in the "Wind Power" section, or should they be mentioned, and the title changed to "Airfoil usage"?

 * I removed the wind power section because it's not an example of an epoxy, but rather of a fibre-reinforced plastic. Wizard191 (talk) 19:32, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Epoxy group
Isn't epoxy also the name of a chemical functional group i.e a chemical can be aiad to contain and epoxy (epoxide) group, which is presumably why this compound is so named?

Souldn't this fact be incorporated into this page or a disambigious-type page created? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.254.147.68 (talk) 09:47, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, I think there should be a disambiguation page. One link should come to this page, which should be called Epoxy(adhesive). The other link should go to the Epoxide article. Deepfryer99 (talk) 20:13, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I added a hatnote to the article to disambiguate the meaning of "adhesive" and the meaning of "chemical group". Do you think the name of this article should also be changed? Devil Master (talk) 15:32, 28 September 2011 (UTC)

Speed of Sound
Hi, does anyone know any values or sources for the speed of sound or impedance of epoxy?--141.63.34.53 (talk) 14:41, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
