Wacker: silicone sealants for long shelf life

Being one of the leading manufacturers of silicone sealants, Wacker has launched neutral grade silicone sealants
Wacker Chemie AG, founded in 1914 by Dr Alexander Wacker in Munich, is a technology leader in chemical and semi-conductor industry. Being one of the leading manufacturers of silicone sealants, Wacker has launched neutral grade silicone sealants. These sealants will be available in two grades: glazing neutral and weather seal neutral.
Wacker glazing neutral Wacker glazing neutral is a one-part, neutral-curing, glazing silicone sealant with excellent adhesion, weather resistance and long shelf life for perimeter sealing and glazing applications. It cures at room temperature under the action of atmospheric moisture to give a permanently flexible silicone rubber.
Special features• Non-sag• Ready to use at low (+5 C) and high (+40 C) temperatures• Excellent weather ability • Flexible at low (-40 C) and high temperatures (+150 C) • Primer less adhesion to most materials • Excellent tooling characteristics for professional use • Non-corrosive to metals• Abrasion resistant • Suitable for alkaline substrates such as concrete, mortar, fibrous cement • Compatible with water-based and solvent-based coatings• Long shelf life.
ApplicationWacker glazing neutral is a sealant designed for sealing of internal and external connection and expansion joints and in fenestration applications. It is especially suitable for glazing applications.
It is suitable for use on alkaline substrates such as concrete and mortar. The sealant can be applied by either hand or machine to seal expansion joints and connecting joints in a variety of materials, such as glass, coated glass, ceramic tiles, enamel, painted surfaces (wood and others), aluminium, steel and many plastics.
Wacker weather seal Wacker weather seal neutral is a one-part, neutral-curing, silicone sealant with excellent adhesion, weather resistance and long shelf life for weather sealing. It cures at room temperature under the action of atmospheric moisture to give a permanently flexible silicone rubber.
Special features• Non-sag• ready to use at low (+5 C) and high (+40 C) temperatures• Excellent weather ability • Flexible at low (-40 C) and high temperatures (+150 C) • Primer less adhesion to most materials • Excellent tooling characteristics for professional use • Non-corrosive to metals • Abrasion resistant • Suitable for alkaline substrates such as concrete, mortar, fibrous cement • Long shelf life.
ApplicationWacker weatherseal neutral is a sealant designed for sealing of exterior sealing with excellent weather ability, gun ability and durability. Wacker weatherseal neutral is also suitable for internal sealing like clean room joints, curtain wall joints or sealing of aluminium panels. This sealant is suitable for use on alkaline substrates such as concrete and mortar.
The sealant can be applied by either hand or machine to seal expansion joints and connecting joints in a variety of materials, such as glass, coated glass, ceramic tiles, enamel, painted surfaces (wood and others), aluminium, steel and many plastics.
Wacker paintable acrylic sealant PS At ZAK Glasstech 2013, WACKER revealed a novel acrylic sealant for interior use: The one-component water-based ready-to-use Wacker paintable acrylic sealant PS has excellent workability at low as well as high temperatures and provides outstanding adhesion on many substrates.
Designed for sealing internal connections, cracks, and windows, it is especially suitable for glazing applications and for use on alkaline substrates such as concrete and mortar.
Additionally, it cures at room temperature with the help of atmospheric moisture and is paintable after curing. Developed exclusively for the Indian market, the new sealant complements WACKER’s Classic Professional and Hybrid sealants line.
