Main characteristics

Due to chemical inertness neutral silicone sealant can be used in various fields. It interacts well with metal surfaces and glass, is used at the joints of concrete and cement structures, and is used in shipbuilding and aviation.

Black silicone sealant is an indispensable tool for technical work with cars. The scope of its application in this direction is wide enough.

The composition is waterproof, withstands well various automotive fluids.

This type of sealant withstands short-term exposure to high temperatures, which can reach 300 degrees. When applied, it does not flow, it is characterized by reliability and durability during operation.

You will learn more about the characteristics of silicone sealant by watching the following video.

Subtleties of choice

The easiest way to determine the quality of the sealant is according to the formulation of the composition. The best results (as mentioned above) are achieved when using a sealant, where, apart from silicone, there is nothing.

This mixture is different:

  1. low level of shrinkage;
  2. long-term use;
  3. excellent mechanical parameters;
  4. higher price in comparison with other adhesives.

A high-quality silicone drug forms an extremely strong chemical and physical bond. The high-temperature composition will withstand heating up to 300 degrees, but neither Ceresit CS25 nor acetate Kim Tec 101 have such a valuable property, you will have to choose other mixtures.

The impeccable quality mix is ​​supplied in 310 or 315 ml tubes, weighing a maximum of 0.34 kg.

They are considered versatile and inexpensive, but not suitable for:

  • any non-ferrous metal;
  • cement walls, floors and ceilings;
  • marble surfaces and details;
  • other substances containing alkali, even in trace amounts.

Varieties

Consider the most popular examples of silicone black sealant and their scope.

Kim Tec effectively insulates windows, doors, aquariums and more. The sealant blocks the spread of moisture, fine dirt (dust) and harmful odors. Kim Tec Water Resistant is acceptable for indoor and outdoor use. The sealant copes well with glass and metal, ceramic and enamelled, wood surfaces.

Even gluing the aquarium with the composition of the specified brand does not require any complex skills, the result will be ready in 30-40 minutes. But the complete readiness of all seams occurs only after 24 hours. Then you can use the product fully. Although silicone is not paintable, this manufacturer compensates for this with the original range of colors. In addition to black, the brand's lineup includes completely transparent (Sturm acetate), colored (light gray, brown, beige) and white versions of the glue, which allows consumers to find exactly what they need.

The mixture is supplied in a container with a capacity of:

  1. 310 ml;
  2. 600 ml;
  3. 20 or 200 liters.

The drug is considered initially ready for use and does not contain any solvents, almost does not shrink. The permissible temperature range for operation ranges from +5 to +40 degrees. SG-20 has excellent contact with almost all surfaces that need to be processed in construction or renovation practice. It is stable under moderate UV exposure and blocks the development of corrosion on the treated surface.

The formed liner can be up to 0.6 cm thick. Even after hardening, the mixture retains its elasticity, despite achieving high strength. Oil and water, antifreeze will not destroy the prepared compound.

Views

Due to its elasticity, silicone cannot be coated with paints and varnishes, but this is compensated for by a fairly wide range of colors. There are transparent, black and colored silicone sealants.

Sealants can be divided into two groups.

One-component formulations do not require additional actions. They are completely ready-to-use, so they are widely used in everyday life.

One of the one-component sealants is silicone. It can be acetate or neutral.

In the first case, the material contains acetic acid, and in the second, alcohol. Due to this, acetate sealant should not be used with metal, stone and concrete, as acid can have a negative effect on them. A neutral sealant handles these problems easily.

Peculiarities

Previously, when there was no such product, it was possible to finish the seams only as a result of long and painstaking work.But the composition, giving a neutral reaction, turned out to be a real salvation. In addition to its practical value, the material is also useful with a zero hazard level for people, animals and plants.

This mixture has a dense structure and copes effectively with various tasks, such as:

  • filling a crack or seam;
  • repair and sealing of aquariums;
  • increasing the tightness of individual sections of structures;
  • prevention of external destructive influences, especially water.
