sealants & adhesives

The chief use of sealants is to block the passage of water and gases through gaps between substrates or surfaces. They also help accommodate movement between materials and additionally serve as adhesives. Depending on the intended use, sealants are formulated using different polymers making them strong, rigid or flexible. Sealants can be manufactured to incorporate various properties such as chemical resistance, corrosion resistance and insolubility depending on their intended usage.
