Sealant Property & Technology Definitions
Low Modulus High Modulus

Range <0.4 MPa Range >0.4 MPa

• Low modulus material requires little force to extend it • High modulus material requires a greater force to extend it (e.g. a car tyre)
(e.g. a rubber band)
• Typically used for low moving joints
• Low modulus sealants must be able to take significant movement
• Sealant must be hard enough to withstand loads but still possess
with rapid stretch and close
movement capability
• Sealants are soft
• Sealant is harder than low modulus

Main Uses Main Uses

• Movement and construction joints • Concrete floor joints with small wheel fork-lift trucks

• Lightweight panels moving easily in changing temperatures • Joints that could be vandalised (e.g. prisons)

• Trafficable joints are typically sealed with high modulus sealants

Hardness Shore ‘A’ Joint Movement Capability

Range 0 - 100 Range +/- 5% to +100%

• Sealant hardness – measures ability to resist penetration on a scale • Measures cyclic movement (extension [+] and compression [-])
from 0 – 100 of a sealant e.g. +/-12.5%, +/-25%, +/-35%, +/-50%, +100%

• Lower hardness means softer and usually more movement in the joint

• Higher hardness means harder and usually less movement in the joint
