2. Caulk - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caulk

   Open-cell foam is porous so it will let gasses through which could otherwise cause blistering of the caulk or sealant. Additionally, open-cell backer rod allows air to get to the back side of the caulk or sealant which accelerates curing when used with air-cured sealants such as silicone. Open-cell rod is more compressible than closed-cell foam ...

3. Silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone

   Silicone caulk can be used as a basic sealant against water and air penetration. In organosilicon and polymer chemistry, a silicone or polysiloxane is a polymer composed of repeating units of siloxane (−O−R 2 Si−O−SiR 2 −, where R = organic group). They are typically colorless oils or rubber-like substances. Silicones are used in ...

4. RTV silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTV_silicone

   RTV silicone rubber can be used to cast materials including wax, gypsum, low-melt alloys/metals, and urethane, epoxy, or polyester resins (without using a release agent). A more recent innovation is the ability to 3D print RTV silicones.

5. Sealant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealant

   Sealant is a substance used to block the passage of fluids through openings in materials, [1] a type of mechanical seal. In building construction sealant is sometimes synonymous with caulk (especially if acrylic latex or polyurethane based) [2] and also serve the purposes of blocking dust, sound and heat transmission. Sealants may be weak or ...

6. Silyl modified polymers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silyl_modified_polymers

   Sealant products manufactured with silyl-modified polymers generally have most of the desirable properties of acrylic- or polyurethane-based products, including high opacity, short drying time, and good paint adhesion, as well as some key properties of silicone-based products, including adhesion to a wider range of substrate materials, higher ...
