A binder is generally a "resin", a high molecular weight hydrocarbon which forms the integral film of a coating by curing. Resins may be thermoplastic (PVC), which means that they can be cycled through solidifying/softening without significant chemical change; or they may be thermosetting (e.g. epoxy) resins which change their chemical structure on curing to a solid film which cannot be re-melted. A few binders are wholly or partly inorganic, such as cement or ethyl zinc silicate.
