Construction & Glazing
ZV-999 — Neutral Structural Silicone Sealant Candidate
A one-component neutral-cure reference candidate for facade and panel-bonding evaluation, including curtain-wall, aluminum-panel, and terracotta-panel projects. Structural use requires project-specific validation and confirmation of the exact formulation.
HIGH TEMPERATUREFIRE RETARDANTSEALANT
ZORVELQA 120 — High-Temperature Silicone Sealant (100 mL)
A 100 mL squeeze-tube format for localized equipment-housing joints and small sealing beads. The catalog lists the high-temperature performance figure as an unverified development target; confirm service limits, adhesion after heat aging, and flame-performance data for the exact formula before selection.
HIGH TEMPERATUREFIRE RETARDANTSEALANT
ZORVELQA 120 — High-Temperature Silicone Sealant (300 mL)
A 300 mL cartridge format for equipment housings, panels, and longer seams exposed to heat. The catalog identifies 850°F (454°C) only as an unverified development target; confirm operating limits and formula-specific test results before use.
