U-30MES-5M liquid polysulfide polymers-based sealant

U-30MES-5M liquid polysulfide polymers-based sealant

U-30MES-5M liquid polysulfide polymers (thiokol)-based sealant is a composition consisting of three components: base (sealing) paste, hardening (curing) paste, and a curing accelerator. After mixing the components, the sealant irreversibly transitions into a black rubber-like material (other color shades are not possible). U-30MES-5 sealant is capable of curing at a temperature not lower than 15 °С. Thiokol sealants based on liquid polysulfide polymers feature good deformability, high oil and petrol resistance, good resistance to UV radiation, oxygen, moisture and air impermeability. Due to its liquid polysulfide polymer base, U-30MES-5M sealant is resistant to crude oil, oil products, solutions of acids, alkalis, salts and solvents. The sealant is recommended for use in contact with aluminum alloys, non-anodized, magnesium alloys, cadmium plated and bare steel.
