Polyurethane secondary sealant TREMCO JS442 MF for insulating glass

TREMCO JS442 MF is a two-component polyurethane secondary sealant developed for insulating glass unit (IGU) production in accordance with EN 1279 requirements.

The sealant provides structural strength and long-term durability of the glass unit, working in combination with primary sealants such as butyl. Due to its elastic and highly adhesive properties, the material ensures reliable bonding between glass panes and spacer systems, while maintaining resistance to environmental stress and ageing.

MAIN PROPERTIES

✔ Two-component polyurethane sealant
✔ Mercury-free formulation
✔ High mechanical strength and elasticity
✔ Excellent adhesion to glass, aluminium and coated surfaces
✔ Long working time with controlled curing
✔ Compatible with IGU primary sealants

APPLICATIONS

• Secondary sealing of insulating glass units
• Structural sealing of IGU systems
• Aluminium and steel spacer systems
• Double and triple glazing production

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

• Type: two-component polyurethane sealant
• Application temperature: +10°C to +30°C
• Service temperature: approx. −20°C to +80°C
• Working time: approx. 25–50 minutes
• Shore A hardness: approx. 55 ±5
• Density: approx. 1.1–1.7 g/cm³
• Function: secondary structural sealing layer

APPLICATION

Mix components A and B according to specified ratio.

Apply using manual or automatic equipment.

Ensure clean, dry and contamination-free surfaces.

Avoid air entrapment during application.

PERFORMANCE CONTEXT

In IGU systems, the polyurethane sealant acts as a structural layer, protecting the primary seal and ensuring resistance to mechanical stress, temperature changes and environmental exposure.

Primary sealants provide gas and moisture barrier, while secondary sealants ensure durability and strength of the unit.

STORAGE

Store in original containers in dry and shaded conditions.

Typical shelf life: up to 6 months (depending on storage conditions).
