Silicones Handle the Movement
To meet the demands of these sealing applications you need a runway joint
sealant, bridge joint sealant, or a highway joint sealant that must:
-
Withstand severe horizontal and vertical concrete expansion joint
movements
-
Handle temperature and weather extremes
-
Install easily with a short downtime
-
Offer a long service life
Silicone pavement sealants from Dow Corning cure to form a permanently
flexible, low- to ultra-low-modulus silicone rubber seal. They can withstand a
high degree of movement (+100/-50 percent of the original joint width) with
excellent recovery, making them ideal for sealing joints under continuous
stress.
Choose from convenient, one-part silicone products for new and old concrete
pavement joints and asphalt and asphalt-to-concrete joints, and two-part,
fast-curing bridge joint sealant with adhesion to concrete, metal and polymeric
concrete substrates. Dow Corning® silicone pavement sealants are
also available in self-leveling formulations for easy application.
