SEAL-ALL exhibits excellent resistance to water, dilute acids and dilute bases. Thin films of Seal-All were immersed in various chemicals for two weeks and exhibited weight gains of less than 2% and tensile strength loss of less than 10%. These chemicals are listed on the left. All percentages are given by weight unless otherwise noted.
- Solvents That Dissolve Seal-all
- Acetone
- Chevron solvent 1100
- Chlorothane NU
- Cyclohexane
- Methyl Ethyl Ketone
- Methylene chloride
- Perchloroethylene
- Propyl acetate
- 1, 1, 1-Trichloroethane
These are common solvents that dissolve SEAL-ALL when hardened samples were immersed. The dissolution with these solvents was not instantaneous and therefore does not preclude usage in all cases. Applications were an occasional splash or brief exposure is expected may be acceptable. Test a small area before full use.
- Directions And Application Notes
Puncture seal in neck of tube using pointer cap; hold tube upright until ready to use. Read directions and test small area before use.
Step 1 USE AS A CONTACT ADHESIVE: Spread coating on each surface to be joined together. Allow to cure 1-2 minutes before mating surfaces. Seal-All hardens by solvent evaporation and forms an immediate bond that is difficult to reposition after both adhesive coated surfaces are placed in contact and sufficient pressure is exerted to create full contact between both surfaces.
Step 2 USE AS A SEALANT: Apply directly to clean, dry surface; hold firmly until product sets. Additional coats may be applied; allow each layer to dry thoroughly. On leaking objects under pressure, apply tape (non-silicone/porous) over hole. Apply Seal-All over tape.
Step 3 DRY TIME: 2-3 min. (set); 2-6 hrs. (full cure).
Step 4 TEMPERATURE RANGE: -40 to 150 °F (-40 to 66 °C).
Step 5 UV RESISTANCE: Paint over for maximum resistance.
Step 6 CHEMICAL RESISTANCE: Resistant to gasoline, alcohol, paint thinner and most solvents.
Step 7 WATER RESISTANCE: Immediately upon application.
May damage finished surfaces. Avoid such contact until completely cured. Not recommended for use on polystyrene, polyethylene, polypropylene, Styrofoam™, or paper products; and any items that come into contact with food, drinking water or animals.
