Is MS sealant the most environmentally friendly sealant?

The MS of MS sealant is the abbreviation of Modified Silicone. It is mainly a one-component or two-component elastic sealant made of MS polymer as the base polymer, combined with fillers, plasticizers and other functional additives. It is a new generation of building sealant developed after silicone sealant (SR) and polyurethane sealant (PU). It is mainly used in the fields of bonding, caulking, seaming, sealing, waterproofing and reinforcement in construction engineering and decoration. As people's understanding of the advantages of MS sealant continues to deepen, its application in the refrigerated truck, container, and elevator industries is also expanding. 

MS sealant was first born in Japan in 1979. A Japanese chemical industry company successfully developed the base polymer of silicone-modified polyether sealant (also known as silyl-terminated polyether sealant) to solve the shortage of cement yellow sand caused by the shortage of natural resources in Japan, thereby replacing it for bonding, caulking, sealing and waterproofing of construction projects and decoration.

Features of MS sealant:

1. Environmental

The composition of MS sealant does not contain any harmful solvents, and does not emit free formaldehyde and other substances harmful to the human body. It can be used in almost every scene in the home, from the kitchen to the bathroom to the living room and bedroom, and it will be more comfortable to use. Especially if there are children, pregnant women and pets at home, you need to make careful choices when choosing sealant.

2. MS sealant has excellent anti-mildew effect

MS sealant achieves long-term mildew resistance through a unique molecular formula. The raw materials used are MS-Polymer resin and inorganic nano-materials. The chemical structure of this material is a molecular structure, which means that it will not have pores. Therefore, it is actually very similar to the molecular structure of glass and aluminum alloys. Who has seen moldy glass and aluminum alloys? Therefore, MS sealant fundamentally eliminates the chance of mold growth, and is currently the best anti-mold performance among several types of sealant on the market.

3. Paintable

Ms sealant has good finishing performance, can be directly painted on Ms sealant and the color is uniform

4. MS sealant is pollution-free

Silicone sealant will precipitate silicone oil, making it adhere to pollutants, especially when it is used for porous materials such as stone and concrete, it will cause pollution that is difficult to remove. This is why we can easily see that many buildings have ugly dirt marks on the facade, which greatly reduces the aesthetics and image value of the building, while MS sealant overcomes such defects from the mechanism and will not produce the same pollution.
