Mungo Green Polymer

Application fields

•  sealing of connecting and expansion joints in the building industry
•  glass and windows construction
•  sealing of joints between glazing and supporting structure (frames, transoms, mullions)
•  Industrial application as sealant in the automotive, aircraft and shipbuilding industries

Processing

The substrate areas that will be in contact with the sealant must be clean, dry and free of all loose material such as dust, dirt, rust, oil and other contaminants. Non-porous substrates should be cleaned with a solvent and a clean, lint-free, cotton cloth. Remove residual solvent before it evaporateFpaints with a fresh clean, dry cloth.

It is the responsibility of the user to test the compatibility of the sealant with the adjoining materials. Incompatible substances like coating materials (paints, varnishes and glazes) or organic plasticizer containing rubbers (EPDM, butyl and neoprene) can lead to discoloration or other impairments like loss of adhesion of the sealant. Materials in direct contact with the applied sealant like cleaning agents and materials in indirect contact like gaseous emissions can damage the sealant in its function or change its appearance. Even a longer period of time in the darkness white joints may show a slight yellowing.

Because of the multitude of these materials WACKER cannot make a general statement to the compatibility or adhesion of materials with the sealant. In case of doubt the user shall conduct appropriate preliminary tests.

The time until complete curing may be extended at lower temperature, lower humidity, increasing film thickness or by low volume of air exchange.

Specification

Adhesion

Mungo Green Polymer exhibits excellent primerless adhesion to many non-porous siliceous materials, e.g. glass, tiles, ceramics, enamel, glazed tiles and clinker varnished or painted wood as well as many plastics.

Users must carry out their own tests due to the great variety of substrates. The adhesion can be improved in many cases by pretreatment of the substrates with a primer. If adhesion difficulties arise please contact our technical service.

Restrictions on use

Mungo Green Polymer must not be used for insulating glass applications

Mungo Green Polymer must not be used for structural glazing or bonding.

Mungo Green Polymer is not recommended for use on natural stones, such as marble, granite, quartzite, as it can cause staining.

Mungo Green Polymer is not recommended for the construction of aquaria.

Mungo Green Polymer is not suitable for food grade applications where the joints are likely to come in contact with food.

Mungo Green Polymer is not recommended for application in permanently wet areas where the joint is strongly or permanently exposed to water, e.g. in swimming pools or public sanitary facilities, please contact our technical service.

Mungo Green Polymer is not suitable for mirror mounting.
