3C WEATHERSEAL FAQ's
When it comes to low modulus silicone sealants, they tend to fall into 2 x main categories, Oxime & Alkoxy. Both systems have pros & cons but in general it is accepted that in some cases Oxime sealants (which release MEKO) can have hazard warnings on both documentation and packaging which many countries are in the process of eradicating altoghether due to health and environment considerations. Solvent-free Alkoxy sealants (which release alcohol) do not carry these negative warnings. The main difference for comparison in use with these types of low mods is the skinning and working time involved, Oxime skins quicker and Alkoxy gives the user more workability time. We have co-written a detailed blog about Low Mod Silicone Sealants - you can see it on our corporate website here. As far as 3C Weatherseal Sealant goes, it's a solid, neutral-curing alcoxy so it's great to gun out and tools off easily.
All joint configurations require that 2 sides (or substrates) are bonded to with the sealant and thus the cured rubber seal provides elongation (or movement) either; in one direction ⬅️ the other ➡️ (or both directions) ↔️ to ensure a seal is kept between them for both weathertight integrity and to allow for general movement which occurs naturally in buildings especially in high winds and with rapid thermal changes. These types of joints can be seen frequently in glazing applications such as glass to aluminium, glass to glass, glass to cladding and other high movement joints. To summarise, 3C Weatherseal is designed, tested and certified to carry movement of 50% in accordance to ASTM C920 for use where high movement is prevalent!
As mentioned above, 3C WEATHERSEAL is a neutral alkoxy curing silicone sealant, so when comparing this product with just these types of products in the marketplace, we can honestly say that our product's quality stands up very well and at a very competitive price point.
