Properties

I-boost technology allows for:: Boosted Performance
Mechanical properties: 30% gain in tensile properties at high service temperatures. Strength when you need it most.

Heat resistance: 40% higher softening point. Stays place even in/at high

Boosted Productivity
High speed ready: 30% faster application on High-speed lines. Leads the industry in skin-over time.

No touch process enabled: 25% quicker structuring. Minimal corner touch-ups required.

Boosted Durability
Improved moisture barrier properties: 30% Improved moisture penetration resistance. An IGU that lasts longer.

Gas retention: 4X better. Keeps Argon & Krypton where they belong.

Edgetherm 3600 was developed with high-speed lines in mind, pacing the industry with the quickest skin-over times and allowing for a cleaner and faster operation. Why wait weeks for higher sealant strength when Edgetherm 3600 gives you the strength up front, where you need it most.
