What Is a MS polymer sealant ?
ADINOX MS Polymer Adhesive Sealant is made from modified silane polymer that combines the best of polyurethane sealants and silicone sealants. It offers high flexibility, excellent water resistance, and higher UV resistance than the polyurethane sealant, allowing prolonged exposure to sunlight without yellowing.
MS polymer adhesive sealant have gained popularity over the years and are now widely recognized. In addition to optimizing material usage, they are compatible with various substrates.
Advantages of MS Polymer Sealant
- Easy application.
- Environmentally friendly.
- Strong adhesion to multiple substrates.
- User-friendly.
- Eco-friendly.
- Long-lasting durability.
- High strength.
- Flexibility.
At ADINOX we offer two types of MS sealants: MS and S series.
