ABSTRACT
Epoxy resins are extensively used as part of the automotive industry, although they are not
specifically monitored and recycled. The goal of this study was to summarize the uses and fields of the
application of epoxy resins in the automotive industry and show possible ways for its further recovery or
energy use at the end of life phase or waste management. To support a general overview of epoxy resins
in the automotive industry, lifecycle assessment of these materials was performed and briefly presented.
Epoxy resin synthesis contributes to the total carbon footprint of the automotive industry,representing
an 84.5% share of the total carbon foot print of the product life cycle. Fossil fuel resource consumption
occurs particularly during the phase of LER production.
