Firstly at 50⁰C in a conventional reactor, mix the reactants (epichlorohydrin and bisphenol A) under a molar ratio of bisphenol A to epicholorhydrin 1:14, then raise the temperature to 115⁰C over a period of time of 30 minutes. Conduct this reaction under a nitrogen gas environment.
Secondly add an alkaline catalyst (2 moles of NaOH), as 30% aqueous solution, drop wise. This usually takes several hours. The rate of addition is maintained as such the reaction mixture does not change the colour when phenothalein (an indicator) is added.
Thirdly carry out the reaction for an additional 30 minutes and then wash out the excess catalyst.
Next raise the temperature to 130⁰C and remove water by decanting (The remaining liquid is dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate or other dessicant)
Lastly remove excess epichlorohydrin by vacuum distillation.

It can be in your paint on your walls, it can be used as an adhesive, even inside your electrical items such as your mobile phone. Basically, epoxy resin is fantastic.
Yes it can.
Specific heat capacity of epoxy resin depends on chemical structure of epoxy resin and range of temperature of measurements. Usually at 25 deg.C specific heat capacity of epoxy resins is 0.8-1.2 kJ/(kg*K). The specific capacity is growing with temperature, roughly increasing 1.5 times by 100 deg.C.
