Sealants
Polymers, crosslinkers, plasticizers, and adhesion promoters for silicone, MS-polymer, polyurethane, polysulfide, and acrylic sealant systems.
Sealants live in the joint — they must accommodate movement (thermal expansion, vibration, settlement) over decades while maintaining a watertight, airtight seal. The polymer chemistry that delivers this elastic-recovery performance differs sharply from coatings or adhesives: long polymer chains with controlled crosslink density, plasticizer choice that doesn't migrate, and adhesion-promoter packages that bond to glass, aluminum, and concrete without primer in most cases.
Coatingsink supplies the sealant raw-materials portfolio: silicone base polymers (RTV1, vinyl-terminated PDMS), MS-polymer (silyl-modified polyether) chemistry STP-E10/E30 grades, polysulfide LP2 and LP32 polymers, polyurethane prepolymers (IPDI-based and TDI-based), the acetoxy and alkoxy crosslinkers, tin and titanate catalysts, fumed silica reinforcement, and adhesion-promoter silanes (APS, vinyl, epoxy-functional) needed to formulate construction, automotive, and industrial sealants.
How to Choose Sealants
Key selection criteria buyers use when specifying sealants for trade and OEM formulations
Movement Capability
Class 25 sealant accommodates ±25% joint movement; Class 50 (modern silicone, MS-polymer) accommodates ±50%. Polysulfide and PU typically Class 25. Match sealant class to design joint movement (calculated from substrate thermal expansion + temperature range).
Substrate Adhesion
Silicone bonds to glass and clean metal but struggles on concrete and porous substrate without primer. MS-polymer adheres to most substrates without primer (its key advantage). PU and polysulfide need adhesion-promoter packages tuned to substrate.
Cure Mechanism
Acetoxy silicone (acid odor, fast cure, but corrodes metal) for residential glazing. Alkoxy silicone (neutral, slower, metal-safe) for industrial use. Hydroxyl-terminated silicone with tin catalyst for general purpose. MS-polymer cures via moisture activation. Polysulfide and PU are 2K systems.
Service Environment
Silicone for high-temperature (200 °C+ continuous) and UV-exposed joints. PU and polysulfide for trafficked horizontal joints (better abrasion). Acrylic for paintable interior caulks. Match polymer to environmental loads — UV, chemical, mechanical, temperature.

Sealants FAQ
MS-polymer (silyl-modified polyether) gives PU-like elasticity with silicone-like UV stability and substrate adhesion — bonds to most substrates without primer, paintable, low odor, no isocyanate. PU sealants are stronger and more abrasion-resistant but need primer on glass and metal, and have isocyanate handling concerns. MS-polymer is becoming dominant for architectural and automotive sealing.
