In specific types, you can also find a rather wide choice of colors, for example, universal silicone sealant can be transparent, white, gray, brown, black, glass sealants are white and colorless. In acrylic composition for wood, the choice is even greater: pine, oak, walnut, mahogany, wenge, beech, ash. Roofing are presented in black, polyurethane - in white, gray and black.

The technical characteristics of each of the sealing compositions, as a rule, are already incorporated in the name, which are understandable even to a simple man in the street.

Kinds

Silicone sealant

It has a number of properties that allow the seam to remain resistant even in adverse conditions, such as high humidity, temperature, the use of chemicals and much more.

The manufacturer Tytan Professional presents several types of silicone-based sealing compounds.

  • universal - has a fairly extensive scope and good adhesion, insensitive to weather conditions, such as high humidity and ultraviolet rays;
  • sanitary - great for sealing in wet areas, has anti-fungal additives;
  • glass - good adhesion with non-porous materials, such as glass, waterproof;
  • for aquariums - not dangerous for fish and reptiles, able to withstand high salt in the water;
  • high-temperature - able to withstand temperatures up to +260? C, short-term - up to 315? C, used to seal engine gaskets in cars and ships, resistant to various chemicals.

Roofing sealants

Created specifically to withstand negative environmental factors, precipitation and sudden changes in temperature. Particularly popular of this line is bitumen-rubber sealant, which provides excellent sealing of seams, which has increased elasticity and reliability. I would also like to highlight the sealant for emergency repair of the roof, which is able to seal even under water, with fog, snow and frost. Its composition is based on synthetic fiber reinforced fiber.

Polyurethane sealants

They differ from other formulations by their increased elasticity, which persists after drying, they can be painted, and they are also resistant to moisture and ultraviolet, which is ideal for outdoor work.

There are various types of polyurethane sealants.

  • PU 25 - for sealing the seams of facades, window and door frames, walls, partitions, spaces around drainpipes;
  • PU 40 - created for the repair of roads and their construction, perfectly manifests itself in the production of automobiles and ships, as well as the railway industry;
  • PU 50 - used in the lining of structures, for example, in the construction of buses, sealing welded joints.

Acrylic Sealants

They are suitable even for wet porous surfaces, are easily cleaned with water, can be painted, and are mainly used to fill cracks and seams.

On the basis of acrylic Tytan Professional releases:

  • specialized sealing compound for wooden surfaces;
  • sealant for ventilation ducts - its specificity is that it is suitable for galvanized metal surfaces;
  • frost-resistant sealant - has excellent resistance to low temperatures.

Separately, you can select specialized sealants that are not included in any of the classifications.

  • silicone-acrylic sealant for the bathroom and kitchen - combines the properties of silicone and acrylic, sealing with it is economical, it practically does not absorb dirt, has good adhesion with wood, ceramics, concrete and PVC, which are often used in premises of this type;
  • silicate sealant for fireplaces - fire-resistant, specially created for stoves, chimneys and fireplaces, environmentally friendly, has a paste consistency;
  • sealant for acrylic baths - has a high adhesion to acrylic, various plastics and PVC, with antifungal additives;
  • silicone for marble - for sealing stone and other porous surfaces.

Scope of application

The scope of sealants Tytan Professional is very wide. This is due to the fact that the manufacturer uses a large number of different in its properties components, allowing the customer to choose exactly what is needed in his case.

Consider some of the parameters that are fundamental in the selection.

  • Temperature mode. This parameter is very important, because not every sealant can be used at negative temperatures (as an example, Tytan acrylic cold-resistant can be used and stored at temperatures down to -30⁰С) and even more so to use in conditions of elevated temperatures (for example, silicate sealant for fireplaces is heat-resistant: it withstands temperature increase to + 1500 ° C).
  • Elasticity. It is necessary to choose the composition, taking into account the mobility of the sealing compound.
  • Type of work. For example, sealants for a roof have a number of characteristics that provide an excellent result in this particular area, while in the other - they will not perform well.
  • Versatility. There are special compounds that are multifunctional and show excellent adhesion to all known materials.

Usage tips

In the use of sealant, the main thing is to choose the correct composition, taking into account all the factors of work, as well as surface treatment before use. It is very important to prepare the materials before sealing, to assess their compatibility with each other. The bases must be carefully cleaned, depending on the type of material, the manipulations will differ.

For surfaces such as concrete and stone, a specialized brush is used to help remove dirt, coloring compositions, and more. On plastic and metal cleaning is done with a solvent. When infecting the base with mold, alcohol disinfectants should be used. Soap solutions should not be used for cleaning, as they are not compatible with sealing compounds.

Years of experience in using the Tytan brand by construction professionals means that truly high quality materials are used in the production of these products. The widest range of sealants allows you to perform well any planned work: from simple household daily needs to deeply specific areas.
