! !
! ! !
In structural applications. Below grade or to materials that outgas, which can cause bubbling in curing sealant. On brass or copper or other similar material that can be corroded. To surfaces that are continuously immersed in water. For use as an interior penetration firestop sealing system. To building materials that bleed oils, plasticizers, or solvents – materials such as impregnated wood, oilbased caulks, green or partially vulcanized rubber gaskets, or tapes or bituminous below-grade waterproofing and asphalt-impregnated fiberboard. In totally confined spaces because the sealant requires atmospheric moisture for cure. To surfaces that will be painted after application. The paint film will not stretch with the extension of the sealant and may crack and peel and most likely will not adhere to the sealant. To surfaces in direct or indirect contact with food. To wet or frost-laden surfaces. In applications where solvents or primers are not fully dried prior to sealant application. Uncured sealant is very sensitive to many solvents, primers, and cleaning agents; these may cause the sealant to remain uncured or tacky.
This product is neither tested nor represented as suitable for medical or pharmaceutical uses.

Test Methods and Procedures: The test specimens were evaluated in accordance with ASTM C 661-06, Standard Test Method for Indentation Hardness of Elastomeric-Type Sealants by Means of a Durometer and ASTM C 719-93(2010), Standard Test Method for Adhesion and Cohesion of Elastomeric Joint Sealants Under Cyclic Movement (Hockman Cycle) for anodized aluminum, glass and concrete substrates. Target values were established based on manufacturer-published product information. For ASTM C 661, two specimens were prepared by filling a brass frame of internal dimensions measuring 5" x 1-1/2" x 1/4". The frame was removed and the sealant was allowed to cure under standard laboratory conditions of 70 ºF and 50% relative humidity for a period of seven days, followed by seven days at 100 ºF and 95% relative humidity and seven days at 70 ºF and 50% relative humidity. A Shore A durometer was applied to the surface of each sealant pad with a force of three pounds. The instantaneous hardness reading was measured and recorded. Two additional readings were taken of each sealant pad for a total of six readings for both specimens. The six readings were averaged to generate the result for this test. For ASTM C 719, three specimens for each of the substrates were prepared by filling a created cavity whose wall components consisted of two 3" x 1" pieces of the substrate, and a 1/2" wide space with an open segment measuring 2" x 1/2". See diagram in Appendix A. The aluminum substrates were primed with Dow Corning© 1200 Prime Coat. The sealant was allowed to cure under standard laboratory conditions of 70 ºF and 50% relative humidity for a period of seven days, followed by seven days at 100 ºF and 95% relative humidity and seven days at 70 ºF and 50% relative humidity. One week after the specimens were assembled, each spacer block was removed. At the conclusion of the curing period, each specimen was flexed twice to check for bond loss. Following the standard conditioning, the specimens were submerged in room temperature distilled water for a period of seven days, then removed and clamped to the minimum dimension of 0.375" and placed in an oven at 158 ºF for seven days. Within 24 hours from removal of the oven exposure, the specimens were placed into an automated cyclic movement device and expanded to a gap dimension of 1.0", then compressed to a gap dimension of 0.25" and returned to its normal dimension of 0.500" at a rate of 1/8" per hour. This process was repeated for a total of ten cycles. Following the ten cycles, the specimens were again checked for bond loss. Each was then compressed and clamped to its minimum dimension of 0.25" and placed in an oven maintained at 158 ºF for a period of 16 to 20 hours. Upon completion of this timeframe, the specimens were removed from the oven, the clamps were removed and the specimens were allowed to return to room temperature over a period of two to three hours. Each was inspected for bond loss and placed in the automated cyclic movement device and expanded from the 0.500" gap dimension to the 1.0" gap dimension while in a -15 ºF environment. Once the specimens attained this dimension, they were removed from the device and allowed to return to room temperature for a period of two hours. A check for bond loss was performed and the process was repeated for a total of ten cycles. After the last cycle, a final bond loss check was conducted.
