Polyurethane sealants, formulated from polyurethane polymers, are adhesive compounds designed to create robust and flexible seals, effectively preventing the infiltration of air, water, or other substances between surfaces. Renowned for their exceptional adhesion, elasticity, and resistance to weathering, these sealants serve various purposes such as sealing gaps, averting water and air ingress into joints, accommodating natural movements of building components, and enhancing aesthetics.
These sealants predominantly exist in two primary forms one-component and two-component varieties. One-component polyurethane sealants encompass formulations with isocyanate properties that react with moisture present in the air or on the substrate. Widely employed across diverse applications including glazing, flooring and jointing, concrete joints, submersion, sanitary and kitchen settings, these sealants cater to a broad spectrum of industries such as building and construction, automotive, general industrial usage, marine, aerospace, and others. Their versatility makes them invaluable across multiple sectors for sealing and bonding applications.
