Revolutionary Reactive Silicone Hot-Melts Increase Productivity and
Reduce Costs
Dow Corning® InstantGlaze and NEW InstantGlaze II are
patented, neutral-cure, reactive hot-melt silicones that are ideal for
automated backbedding applications. When used with standard hot-melt
dispensing equipment and an automated XY glazing table, InstantGlaze becomes
part of a total productivity solution...a solution that enables you to
produce windows and doors faster, better and more economically than other
technologies on the market today.
The Productivity Advantage
-
Ideal for automated backbedding applications
-
No bottlenecks because instant green strength allows windows to move to the
next processing step immediately
-
No "hold time" allows windows to be shipped as quickly as they are
produced, which reduces space requirements and increases facility
utilization
-
Long pot life and open time provide processing flexibility and robust
manufacturing options
-
Proven silicone chemistry is compatible with most common fenestration
materials
-
Aggressive adhesion for long life and seamless seals
-
Nonhazardous formulation is low odor and worker friendly
-
Less waste: Dow Corning InstantGlaze sealants virtually
eliminate the glazing failures common with tapes
The Performance Advantage
Dow Corning InstantGlaze Window Assembly Sealants deliver all the
recognized performance capabilities of silicone, but unlike traditional
silicone sealants, they are reactive hot-melt materials designed specifically
to take full advantage of automated backbedding technology. They deliver
instant green strength so windows can be immediately handled without risking
the integrity of the seal or distorting the sash, offering significant
productivity improvements.
NEW InstantGlaze II, our latest addition to the InstantGlaze family,
was developed with the input of manufacturers specializing in aluminum, vinyl
and wood fenestration products. InstantGlaze II is formulated to
provide:
-
Increased compressibility
-
Quicker elastic recovery
-
Improved wet-out
