Durability of Building and Construction Sealants and Adhesives: 3rd Volume
Editor(s): Andreas T. Wolf
Twenty-one peer-reviewed papers provide the latest scientific research, gained from laboratory research and field work, in the building and construction industry for all aspects of sealant and adhesive durability.
Topics cover:
Laboratory Testing and Specialized Outdoor Exposure Testing — a report on a correlation between environmental and accelerated RILEM TC 139-dbs weathering for one-component polyurethane sealants applied on mortar; a new approach to joint sealing systems for pavement; and much more.
Factors Influencing the Durability of Sealed Joints and Adhesive Fixations — substrate durability guidelines used in silicone structural attachment; adhesion development of organic and silicone sealants on wet and dry concrete; cleaning silicone residue from glass; resistance of adhesive bonding of ultra-high performance concrete to hygrothermal, corrosive, and freeze-thaw cycling environments.
Development of New Test Methods and Performance-Based Specifications — discussion on the increased use of windows designed to mitigate the impact of bomb blasts; quantification of effect of enforced cyclic movement and regional exposure factors on weatherability of construction sealants; and much more.
Field Experience with Sealed Joints and Adhesive Fixation — comparison of the outdoor weathering behavior of a laboratory prepared high performance acrylic sealant to that of a commonly used, commercially available two-part polyurethane sealant.
