Product Description

DOWSIL 758 Silicone Weather Barrier Sealant is a one-part, neutral-cure silicone elastomeric sealant for primerless application to low-surface-energy air and weather barriers, window flashing, and fenestration materials. Documented substrates include polyethylene, polypropylene, other common polyolefins, PVC, steel, aluminum, and fluorinated surfaces. Typical flow/sag is 0.06 mm and volatile organic content is 25 g/L. Typical cured properties include 30 Shore A hardness and 200 psi tensile strength.

Key features

  • Working time: Working time is 15 minutes.
  • Joint movement capability: Joint movement capability is +/-25%.
  • Cured elongation: Typical cured elongation is 800%.

Applications

Weather barriers; self-adhered and nonwoven window flashing; fenestration joints; polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC, steel, aluminum, and fluorinated surfaces.

Technical Specifications

Mechanical Properties
Elongation
Elongation is the process of lengthening something. It is a percentage that measures the initial, unstressed, length compared to the length of the material right before it breaks. It is commonly referred to as Ultimate Elongation or Tensile Elongation at break.
