Application of 1,3-Cyclohexanedimethanamine (1,3-BAC) in Jewelry Adhesives
June 18, 2026

Epoxy resin for jewelry generally refers to highly transparent epoxy resin materials used for decorative purposes.

 

It is widely used in a variety of items, including personal accessories such as earrings, hair clips, necklaces, bracelets, hat badges, brooches, apparel, key rings, buttons, shoe ornaments, belt buckles, and bag charms. It is also applied in daily necessities like door and cabinet handles, hardware fittings, as well as picture frames, signage, and other decorative items.

 

Epoxy resins for jewelry are typically categorized into flexible resin, rigid resin, doming resin, and casting/polishing resin. The main components usually include epoxy resin, amine curing agents, and various additives. These resins are characterized by high transparency, flexibility or high hardness, and excellent yellowing resistance.

 

1,3-BAC (1,3-Cyclohexanedimethanamine) is an aliphatic amine and serves as a key raw material for epoxy curing agents, widely used around the world. When used as a raw material for jewelry epoxy curing agents, 1,3-BAC offers typical advantages such as low viscosity, high hardness, high transparency, yellowing resistance, and fast curing speed. This endows the epoxy jewelry resin with a more ideal appearance and outstanding performance.
