HYPERSEAL®-25LM-S Product Data Sheet

Unique One Component, Polyurethane-based, Low Modulus Joint Sealant,
Combining Classic Polyurethane Technology With Hybrid Technology,
With Outstanding Thixotropic Properties

Description
HYPERSEAL®-25LM-S is a novel low modulus expansion joint sealant, especially formulated to contain both PU and
silylated-PU technology, thus giving rise to a sealant which includes the best of both technologies. It has been
modified in order to give enhanced thixotropic properties.

It cures by reaction with atmospheric humidity to produce a joint sealant with a 50% joint movement
accommodation factor and excellent adhesion on substrates traditionally problematic for PU sealants, e.g. glass,
aluminum, steel, polycarbonate, etc. Additionally, the sealant has been modified in order to have extrusion profile
identical to hybrid PU or MS technology. The extrusion rate and tooling of the sealant remain the same throughout
a very wide range of temperature and humidity conditions.

The sealant is easy to apply even in very low temperatures and the storage stability is unlike any polyurethane
sealant in the market.

Limitations

Not recommended for direct application on unsound substrates.

In this case, the substrate must be primed with MICROPRIMER®-PU, which will re-enforce the concrete and
produce a strong durable substrate for sealant application.

Highly porous substrates, dusty surfaces or poorly compacted concrete, must have their porous bond area
surfaces thoroughly sealed to avoid the possibility of air bubbles being blown into the uncured sealant if the
substrate temperature rises.

HYPERSEAL®-25LM-S is suitable for UV exposure and has been certified for external use according to EN 15651-1
& 4, however if colour retention and no chalking is required, it is recommended that the sealant be painted with
good quality acrylic paint.

Application Procedure

Clean joint thoroughly, and ensure that no oil, grease and wax contaminants, silicone remains are present. For
many applications, primer is not required. In the case of application on very porous substrates, bond area surfaces
thoroughly to avoid the possibility of air bubbles being blown into the uncured sealant if the substrate
temperature rises. The recommended primer is MICROPRIMER®-PU.

Apply backing material such as open cell polyurethane or a closed cell polyethylene backing rod. Although both
types of backing rod are recommended, care must be taken when using the closed cell polyethylene rod that the
outer skin not be punctured as in rising temperature conditions it may cause bubbling. Backing rod application
is important as it ensures that the correct width to depth ratio is achieved to provide a firm backing against which
the sealant can be tooled off.

Slide the sealant into the applicator gun, cut off the very end of the sealant packaging and fit the gun with the
nozzle that has been cut to deliver the right bead size. Extrude the sealant into the joint ensuring that no air is
trapped in the joint. Wide joints will require more than one pass of the application gun to make sure that sealant
is in full contact with the sides and bottom of the joint.

Tooling is recommended immediately after the application of sealant. The ratio width to depth should be 2:1
subject to a minimum depth of 10mm
