	Features Item : Application of epoxy resins in consolidation of ornamental stone (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The resins used in the ornamental stone industry are approximately 70% to 80% cured after several days, and to be 100% cured may take months.
		Since many different types of stone are processed with varying permeability and porosity, one usually works with a slab temperature between 40 and 50 degrees C. The time dependence of the viscosity can also be controlled by choosing a fast or slow hardener, or by choosing to add accelerators to the mixture.
		Ornamental stone slab surfaces are normally honed to abrasive grain size 120 and therefore should already have an adequate surface profile.
