Product Profile of Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant
McCoy Silicones Limited, an ISO 9001:2000 Certified Company is the manufacturer of Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant, Sikasil IG-25. The Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant is a neutral, condensation-curing, elastic silicone sealant with high mechanical strength and outstanding adhesion to many substrates. The Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant is a professional silicone sealant which is specially designed for sealing, bonding and mending in construction applications. This silicone sealant is particularly suitable for the manufacture of multilane insulating glass. The Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant is used in structural glazing façades with high mechanical strength and excellent adhesion to many construction materials such as glass and metal. The two parts component A [base compound] and component B [catalyst paste] must be mixed, and cure at room temperature to form an elastomer.
The features of the Non-sag 2-part Silicone Sealant are as follows:
Neutral curing system: odorless
External quality control
Long shelf-life: simplified stock keeping
Solvent less
Non-sag
Ready gunnability at low [+5°C] and high [+40°C] temperatures
