Tytan Professional sealants: types, characteristics

Today, the building materials market does not stand still: every day, new and more advanced products in terms of characteristics and ease of use are replacing outdated compositions. An excellent example of the use of innovative technologies in the field of sealing is the manufacturer Tytan Professional - one of the most popular on the shelves of hardware stores today. Consider the main types and characteristics of this brand of sealants.

The entire line of Tytan Professional sealants is available in convenient 310 ml gun tubes for even application with minimal waste. You can also find packages of larger volume (600 ml), but in less convenient packaging - foil.

As for the color palette, most of the silicone sealants in question are white in color. In specific species, you can also find a fairly wide selection of colors, for example, universal silicone sealant is transparent, white, gray, brown, black, glass sealants - white and colorless. The acrylic composition for wood has even more choice: pine, oak, walnut, mahogany, wenge, beech, ash. Roofs are available in black, polyurethane in white, gray and black.

The technical characteristics of each of the sealing compounds, as a rule, are already laid down in the name, which is understandable even to a common man in the street.

It has a number of properties that allow the seam to remain resistant even in adverse conditions, such as high humidity, temperature, the use of chemicals and much more.

The manufacturer Tytan Professional has several types of silicone-based sealants.

• universal - has a fairly wide range of applications and good adhesion, insensitive to weather conditions, such as high humidity and ultraviolet rays;
• sanitary - excellent for sealing in damp rooms, contains antifungal additives;

• glass - good adhesion with non-porous materials such as glass, waterproof;
• for aquariums - not dangerous for fish and reptiles, able to withstand high salt content in water;
• high-temperature - capable of withstanding temperature rise up to +260 ° C, short-term - up to 315 ° C, used to seal engine gaskets in cars and ships, resistant to various chemicals.

Designed specifically to withstand negative environmental factors, precipitation and sudden temperature changes. Particularly popular from this line is bitumen-rubber sealant, which provides excellent sealing of joints, has increased elasticity and reliability. I would also like to highlight a sealant for emergency roof repair, which is able to seal even under water, in fog, snow and frost. Its composition is based on fiber-reinforced synthetic rubber.

They differ from other compounds in their increased elasticity, which remains after drying, they can be painted, and they are also resistant to moisture and ultraviolet radiation, which is ideal for outdoor use.

There are different types of polyurethane sealants.

• PU 25 - for sealing the seams of facades, window and door frames, walls, partitions, spaces around drainpipes;
• PU 40 - designed for road repair and construction, excellently manifests itself in the production of cars and ships, as well as the railway industry;
• PU 50 - used for overlaying structures, for example, in the construction of buses, sealing welded joints.

Suitable even for damp porous surfaces, can be easily cleaned with water, can be painted, used mainly for filling cracks and joints.

Based on acrylic Tytan Professional produces:

• specialized sealing compound for wooden surfaces;
• ventilation duct sealant - its specificity is that it is suitable for galvanized metal surfaces;
• frost-resistant sealant - has excellent resistance to low temperatures.

Separately, we can single out specialized sealants that are not included in any of the classifications.

• silicone-acrylic sealant for bathroom and kitchen - combines the properties of silicone and acrylic, sealing with it is economical, it practically does not absorb dirt, has good adhesion to wood, ceramics, concrete and PVC, which are often used in rooms of this type;
• silicate sealant for fireplaces - fire resistant, specially designed for stoves, chimneys and fireplaces, environmentally friendly, has a paste consistency;
• sealant for acrylic bathtubs - has increased adhesion to acrylic, various plastics and PVC, with antifungal additives;
• silicone for marble - for sealing stone and other porous surfaces.

The area of ​​application of Tytan Professional sealants is very wide. This is due to the fact that the manufacturer uses a large number of components that differ in their properties, allowing the buyer to choose exactly what is needed in his case.

Consider some of the parameters that are fundamental when choosing.

• Temperature conditions. This parameter is very important, because not every sealant can be used at low temperatures (for example, Tytan acrylic frost-resistant can be used and stored at temperatures down to -30⁰С) and even more so used in conditions of elevated temperatures (for example, silicate sealant for fireplaces is heat-resistant: withstands temperature rise up to + 1500⁰С).

• Elasticity. It is necessary to choose the composition, taking into account the mobility of the sealed joint.
• Type of work. For example, roofing sealants have a number of characteristics that provide excellent results in this specific area, while in the other they will show themselves not in the best side.
• Versatility. There are special formulations that are multifunctional and exhibit excellent adhesion to all known materials.

In using a sealant, the main thing is the correctly selected composition, taking into account all the factors of work, as well as surface treatment before use. It is very important to prepare materials before sealing, to assess their compatibility with each other. The bases must be thoroughly cleaned, depending on the type of material, manipulations will differ.

For surfaces such as concrete and stone, a specialized brush is used to help remove dirt, coloring compounds, and more. On plastic and metal, cleaning is done with a solvent. If the base is contaminated with mold, use alcohol-based disinfectants. Do not use soap solutions for cleaning, as they are not compatible with sealing compounds.

Years of experience using the Tytan brand by construction professionals means that truly high quality materials are used in the manufacture of these products. The widest range of sealants allows you to perform any planned work with high quality: from simple household everyday needs to deeply specific areas.

It is easy and pleasant to use such a proven tool., but you don't have to worry about the final result. Most consumers using Tytan Professional sealants leave positive feedback on their operation, because it is difficult to leave a neutral review on a product of excellent quality. Users also note that they are very pleased with the price-quality ratio for the goods of this brand.
