List of featured suppliers of SEALANTS By Special Function Construction Joint on Building Products Index
Sealants with special functions refer to materials or substances used to close gaps or joints in construction that have specific properties or attributes. A construction joint, on the other hand, represents the point where building elements meet and can move independently of each other, due to various factors such as climate changes, earthquakes, or structural settling. Therefore, sealants with special functions for construction joints refer to sealants that ensure the joint closure is flexible, resistant to various weather conditions, or even fireproof, depending on the joint's role within the building project. These types of sealants are used to prevent air or water infiltration, fire propagation, or sound transmission through the joint.
