DESCRIPTION
TIOMIX is a 2-component sealant of cold hardening developed on polysulfide based polymer and hardened by classical reaction of interaction of end SH-group with manganese dioxide.
TIOMIX is delivered in the form of a set consisting of component A (base) and component B (hardener) mixed just before application.
After mixing the components, easy-to-apply thixotropic paste is obtained. After hardening is completed as a result of chemical reaction, an elastic material similar to rubber, which is resistant to high strength, vibrations and atmospheric effects, has excellent adhesion to glass, aluminum, stainless steel and galvanized surfaces, is obtained.
AREA OF APPLICATION
TIOMIX is used as a sealant filling paste, which acts as a second sealing layer in the manufacturing of heat glass units. It provides the mechanical strength of the heat glass structure, protects the first sealing layer, prevents water from entering the heat glass and creates an additional barrier for the diffusion of gases.
ADVANTAGES
The sealant has the following distinctive properties:
- high adhesion to glass, metal and plastic spacers (aluminum, stainless or zinc galvanized steel, PVC);
- optimal physical and mechanical properties both for automatic and hand application;
- optimal pot life and hardening time;
- optimal thixotropic properties (no leaks, no stringing);
- high resistance to atmospheric impact and heat-aging resistance.
METHOD OF APPLICATION
TIOMIX component A shall be used only with TIOMIX component B. For a dosage of components, preparation and application of the sealant mixture, it is necessary to use the special equipment or tools.
Pot life of the sealant ranges from 30 to 60 min. depending on a batch of the sealant, mixing ratio of components and environmental conditions.
MIXING RATIO A:B
10:1 by volume
10:0,9 by weightThe sealant mixture shall be prepared according to proportions indicated on the sealant’s labels and according to information of technical data sheet
Ambient temperature makes considerable effect on curing speed of the sealant.
STORAGE
Components of the sealant should be stored in the closed dry conditions protected from direct sun, atmospheric precipitation and mechanical damages.
The recommended storage temperature: +10°C …+30°C.
MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY
Storage period of unopened (intact) in the original packaging of the sealant is 6 months, provided that the user complies with the conditions of transportation, storage and application.
