This kind of decoration product has been known by people. Sealant is applied to the crevice of ceramic tile to prevent bacterial proliferation and beautify the effect of ceramic tile to the greatest extent. But what does sealant consist of? Is there harm? Today, Kelin tile grout supplier will take you to understand.

What material is sealant made of?

 


 

Seam sealant uses high-tech new polymers and high-grade pigments. It is composed of inorganic materials, and the main component is epoxy resin. In the past, seam sealant needs to be used as a base, but now the seam sealant can be used directly without a base, which saves a lot of trouble.

Different gap filler ceramic material composition is also different

There are two kinds of sealant on the market, one is oily and the other is water-based.The early sealant is also divi  ded into single combination and two groups, since the classification is different, the composition of the material is different.

One group of sealant

Single-group sealant is a product that independently mixes curing agent and pigment. It uses a new polymer, but also adds a lot of familiar chemicals, such as toluene and nonylphenol. It is a product that will emit irritating smell and have certain harm.

 


 

Two, two groups of sealant

Double group sealant can be divided into oily and water-based, which are also new products at present. The main ingredients are safe and environmentally friendly epoxy resin.

 

1. Oily sealant, also known as true porcelain adhesive, is a very hard sealant after curing.Oil-based sealant is a modified and upgraded product on the basis of single group sealant. Other substances are added for the stability and characteristics of the product.It is difficult to clean with oily sealant.

2. Water-based sealant is also known as water porcelain glue. It is a product with very high environmental protection, taking water as the main body, adding inorganic materials such as antibacterial antifouling additives. Waterborne sealant is soluble in water before curing, more environmentally friendly than oily, hard and tough, and can achieve real non-toxic and harmless.

At present, the quality of sealant on the market is uneven, but Lin Mei seam suggests that the owners must choose the regular manufacturer to produce sealant when choosing sealant. The inferior sealant can not provide effective guarantee in practicality and environmental protection.
