high
elasticity and movement accomodation,
typically used for all types of external weatherproofing. Low
Modulus - quantity that expresses the degree to which a substance
possesses a property, such as elasticity.The
condition in which material is slightly flexible where resilience
will withstand expansion and contraction, vibration,
impact and stress.
Upvc
windows, movement joints in concrete, brickwork and various
other substrates.
low
elasticity and movementaccomodation. High
Modulus - quantity that expresses the degree to which a substance
possesses a property, such as elasticity. High-strength material that is rigid. Used
specifically where high strength is needed. Generally internal
application.
All
sanitary applications, translucent colour-frameless glass aquaria.
Contains fungicide
Cures with atmospheric moisture
with high movement accommodation
and excellent adhesion. Having
only a limited ability to react chemically; not active; "inert
matter"; "an indifferent chemical in a reaction". For
all building and glazing materials,
without any of the unwanted 'side effects' Acetoxy or similar
cure could possibly cause.
Upvc
windows, movement joints in concrete, brickwork and various
other substrates.
For Structural bonding of
glass, metal, and other building components. Specifically designed
and tested for structural glazing. A
part of a structure that bears a weight, or the structural piece
used for such a part.A
part of a structure that carries a load.
Structural
silicone elastomeric adhesive for fabrication and
shop glazing of curtain wall modules.
Elastomeric
construction sealants and adhesives.
Modified
-Changed in form or character/ Polymer - A substance
with a molecular structure formed from many identical small
molecules bonded together. Silane - a chemical compound with
chemical formula SiH4. It is the silicon analogue of methane.
Elastomeric,
multipurpose sealant based on polyurethane. Suitable for indoors
and outdoors.
Fire
Rated - Giving
a tested and/or approved fire hour rating seal for preventing
the spread of smoke and flames caused by fire.
A
fire-resistance rating typically means the duration for which
a passive fire protection system can withstand a standard fire
endurance test. This can be quantified simply as a measure of
time, or it may entail a host of other criteria, involving other
evidence of functionality.
One-part
low modulus neutral cure fire rated silicone sealant
Intumescent
- Swelling
up; expanding. A
substance which swells as a result of heat exposure, thus increasing
in volume and decreasing in density. Intumescents are typically
used in passive fire protection and require bounding installations
in order to comply with the law.
Perimeter
Sealing of Fire Doors & Screens,Low Movement Fire Resistant
Joints,4 Hours Fire Integrity.
Polysulphide
- Polysulphide
polymers are insoluble in water,oils & many other organic
solvents therefore often used as sealants. A primary reason for using this material in these applications
is to prevent water intrusion. Alsooverpaintable.
External
perimeter pointing of door and window frames, and expansion
joints.
Polyurethane
- Any of various resins,
widely varying in flexibility, used in tough chemical-resistant
coatings, adhesives, and foams.
They
are used in building insulation, movement and construction joints,
surface coatings, adhesives, solid plastics, and athletic apparel.
One-component, solvent-free,
elastic adhesive for all types of wooden flooring.
Acrylic
- Artificial
fiber made from a special group of vinyl compounds. Thermoplastic (soften
when heated, reharden upon cooling).
Have
low moisture regain and is low in density, drys easily and is
dimensionally stable. Resistant to bleaches, dilute acids and
alkalies. Over-Paintable.
Perimeter
Sealing of Fire Doors & Screens Low Movement Fire Resistant
Joints.
Non-Stain
- Typically
for weatherproofing and sealing sensitive porous stone without
leeching.
Stain- To discolor, soil, or spot a surface.
To produce or receive discolorations.
Food/Refridgeration
- Sealing
where food contact is likely or imminent.
Food
- Material, usually of plant or animal origin. Can be prepared
or consumed raw / Refridgeration - The process of removing heat
from an enclosed space, and rejecting it elsewhere for the primary
purpose of lowering the temperature of the enclosed space and
then maintaining that lower temp.
Bitumen
- Sealants
for use against bitumenous substrates. Mixture
of mineral aggregate and bitumen (or tarmac in common parlance).
any one of the natural hydrocarbons, including the hard, solid,
brittle varieties called asphalt.
Silicone
Rubber - Acetoxy
silicone rubber sealants that fill and caulk.
A
class of inert, semi-inorganic polymeric compounds of silicon,having a wide range of thermal stability and extreme water repellence.
Pliable material derived from the sap of the rubber tree.
A
silicone rubber sealant that fills and caulks gaps, joints
and cracks around the boat.
2-Part
Polysulphide - Polysulphide
polymers are insoluble in water, oils, and many other organic
solvents and therefore are often used as sealants. A primary reason for using this material in these applications
is to prevent water intrusion.
Joints
in building and civil engineering structures.
2-Part
Epoxy - Tough
sealants for specialist tasks. A thermosetting
epoxide polymer that cures (polymerizes and crosslinks) when
mixed with another part (catalyzing agent or "hardener".)
Biodegradation
resistant for many water retaining structures including sewage.
