Bio-Based Epoxy Resins – Sustainable & Low Viscosity Epoxy Supplier

Bio-based Epoxy Resins (also known as bio epoxy resin or eco-friendly epoxy resin) are innovative, plant-derived solutions designed to replace traditional bisphenol A epoxy resin and bisphenol F epoxy resin systems. Sourced from renewable feedstocks such as vegetable oils, lignin, or glycerol, these sustainable epoxy resins offer excellent adhesion, mechanical strength, and chemical resistance while reducing environmental impact.

As an epoxy resin supplier and experienced technical partner, De Monchy provides a portfolio of bio-based, modified, and toughened epoxy resins, available in different viscosities and performance grades to fit different application needs.

What are Bio-based Epoxy Resins?

Bio-based epoxy resins are thermosetting polymers that combine renewable content with high mechanical and chemical performance. They are formulated as low viscosity epoxy resins, solid epoxy resins, and waterborne epoxy resins, suitable for use across coatings, adhesives, composites, and flooring systems.

  • High-performance & sustainable → comparable to conventional high performance epoxy resins
  • Renewable feedstocks → derived from bio-based oils, lignin, or sugars
  • Reduced carbon footprint → sustainable alternative to fossil-based phenolic epoxy resin or novolac epoxy resin systems
  • Non-toxic & REACH-compliant → safe for industrial and consumer formulations

About our supplier

Established in 1958 by industrialist Yung-Ching Wang in Taipei, Taiwan, Nan Ya Plastics Corporation stands as one of the chemical and plastics companies within the Formosa Group. Widely recognized as the world’s largest manufacturer of secondary plastics, Nan Ya is also a prominent producer of polyester fibers and copper-clad laminates for electronic materials.

Applications of Bio-based Epoxy Resin

Coatings, Adhesives & Composites

Our bio epoxy resins are widely used in industrial coatings, structural adhesives, and epoxy resin for composites. They deliver excellent adhesion, toughness, and high heat resistance, making them ideal for high temperature epoxy resin applications in automotive, construction, and electronics.

In coating formulations, they provide high gloss, abrasion resistance, and chemical durability. In composites, low viscosity resin systems enable excellent fiber wet-out and mechanical strength, critical for lightweight, high-performance materials.

Applications of Bio-based Epoxy Resins

Electrical, Marine & Flooring Systems

De Monchy’s bio-based epoxy resins are also used in marine epoxy resin and electrical encapsulation applications due to their strong dielectric properties and water resistance. For flooring and construction systems, toughened epoxy resins provide superior impact strength and long-term performance.

We also supply epoxy resin emulsions and waterborne epoxy resins for low-VOC and water-based coating formulations, an ideal solution for sustainable industrial use.

Benefits of Bio-based Epoxy Resins

  • Sustainable & renewable → derived from plant-based feedstocks
  • Eco-friendly epoxy resin alternative to traditional bisphenol-based systems
  • Low viscosity epoxy → easy processing and improved fiber wetting
  • Compatible with novolac phenolic epoxy and modified epoxy systems
  • Customizable bio-content (up to 100%) → tailored to performance needs
  • Excellent mechanical, thermal & chemical resistance
