Adhesives and Sealants

Building Adhesives
Joint Sealants

Building Adhesives have to bond together various materials. Good adhesion and strength are required.

Joint sealants have to meet stability, adhesion, good elasticity even under temperature changes and good resistance weathering as well as compatibility with the different materials.

NOVARES resins in combination with reactive systems, e.g. epoxy, acrylates, polyurethanes and polysulfides give the following properties:

  • water repellency during and after curing of the systems
  • increase of resistance to water and moisture
  • control of viscosity
  • flexibility in the end formulations
  • improved wetting of fillers and pigments
  • increase of resistance to acids and alkali

LC – Serie, niedrigviskose Flüssigharze mit weiter Polaritätsbandbreite

These liquid resins were developed as modifiers for reactive resin systems based of epoxy resins, PU, polysulfides and acrylates. From the wide polarity range between 0.5 % and 6.5 % OH content the optimal liquid resin could be selected for different technical requirements. The product viscosities are on a low level and allow development and production of VOC-reduced and solvent-free coatings. Due to increased crystallization stability an easy processing is possible also at difficult climatic conditions.

They exhibits the following advantages

  • low viscosity coupled with wide range of polarity
  • improved stability against crystallisation
  • accurate controlling of system reactivity
  • accurate controlling of curing and the final hardness
  • improved compatibility due to defined polarity
