Eternabond is a specially formulated sealant that’s designed to produce a long-lasting bond, but let’s not undersell the product, for its sealing power is characterized by some extraordinary features. Let’s begin with the microsealant’s aptitude for stoppering non-pressurized leaks. It’s a headlining feature, one where the compound exhibits enough strength to stop seeping water in…
The viscosity of an uncured fluid tells a chemical designer a great deal about its qualities. Fundamentally, this gelatinous quality effects everything about the fixative agent, everything from the way it flows to the time it takes to cure. In truth, no sticky stuff worth its name should ever be considered fully formulated unless this…
Stress analysis is the art of assessing the strengths and weaknesses that propagate within a material or structure. It’s also a parameter that stands tall in the foam sealant industry, for a reliable seal is expected to withstand conflicting mechanical forces across all three planes of motion. This important feature is sought after when cylinders…
Sidestep the seven years bad luck adage by evaluating the adhesive strength in mirror mounting tapes. In a technology-dominated global infrastructure, no one believes in bad luck anymore, but why take any chances? On a more serious note, reflective room accents are breakable. Glass panels can break, and they will shatter, so a reliable mounting…
Green glue products are amorphous in shape, but they cure to deliver a sharply clarified list of essential features. They stop loud noises, so their soundproofing credentials are unimpeachable. But, more than this, they also put this once expensive enterprise within arm’s reach of every homeowner. Consequently, soundproofing technology no longer belongs solely to recording…
Today’s sealants shield our finest structures with a level of armored proficiency that guarantees internalized site protection. They’re anchored by caulk silicone, a product that’s famed for its sealant backbone, a feature that’s employed in literally hundreds of applications. Gel-like in consistency, caulking can waterproof anything, plus it bonds well, cures quickly, and is compatible…
Malleability and semi-rigidity dictate the mechanical properties of polyurethane foam spacers, and it’s this innate capacity for establishing space between two objects that classifies the foam as an invaluable tool in the construction industry. In summarizing the applications of this spacing system, our first stop is the glazing industry. Binding Windows to Frames with Polyurethane…
As you renovate or construct a building or home, you should consider how to soundproof it in the ideal manner to suit your needs. While there are a number of different products on the market to achieve this goal, our Green Glue® products perform this task in a quality, cost-effective manner and are easy to…
Adhesive compounds rely on a uniform state change, a fully hardened or cured structural change that’s generated by a widespread chemical reaction. Unlike a fastener, we can’t just jiggle a component and see if it’s loose. Neither can we spot a crack in a weld, for this is a wholly chemical bond. Instead, poor sealant…
Low winter temperatures make everything contract, which is alright for us because we can just pull our coats tight and weather the cold. It’s different for building materials, though, because these materials literally shrink when the cold weather arrives. Fortunately, versatile sealants are imbued with compressible characteristics, so they can hang tight when contraction event…
