But, sometimes other traits are wished for. Are there any marine performance
(for wood, plastic, ,metalls) glues that (compared to epoxi) are more...

a) elastic?

Marine silicon sealant is elastic and flexible, and resists high and low
temperatures, but it is not a very good adhesive.


b) low density?

I don't think you can beat filled epoxy. Use West System ultralight
filler, for example, but read up on the warnings before you use it. (It
may not be very heat tolerant, and is not a high-strength filler, for
example.)


c) as epoxi but 1 komponent?


I don't think so. There is such a thing as pre-preg, which is a laminate
material already impregnated with a slow-curing epoxy. I've never used it,
and I don't think it is what you want, but the idea is that you create
your structure then cook it to make the epoxy cure.

d) how is epoxi lowest density achived ?


With fillers.
