Applications/Adhesives & Sealants

Lighter Bonds, Better Rheology, Fewer Callbacks

Density down, sag control up, shrinkage gone.

Spherical low-oil-absorption fillers that thicken without thixotrope overload — for construction sealants, aerospace adhesives, automotive seam sealers and marine caulks.

Application scenarios

01

Construction & glazing sealants

Lower density → more linear meters per cartridge; controlled slump.

02

Structural & aerospace adhesives

Bondline weight reduction with maintained lap-shear performance.

03

Automotive seam sealers

Lower mass per vehicle, paintable surfaces, anti-sag on verticals.

04

Marine & below-waterline caulks

Closed-cell filler — no wicking, no osmosis pathways.

Why switch — on both ledgers

Economic advantages
  • Sell by the cartridge, fill by volume: density 0.32 g/cc filler extends each batch
  • Replace fumed silica partially — cut cost and dust exposure
  • Lighter sealant = cheaper freight on a heavy product
Functional advantages
  • Ball-bearing rheology: viscosity control without shear-thin overload
  • Low shrinkage on cure
  • Improved insulation inside the joint
  • Chemical inertness across PU, silicone, epoxy, MS-polymer
