Form No. 62-1531-01
Der weltweite Trend zur Energieeinsparung und die moderne Architektur schrauben die Anforderungen an
Dauerhaftigkeit und Wärmedämmung von Isolierglas-Einheiten nach oben. Dadurch steigt auch die Nachfrage an
gasgefüllten Isoliergläsern und Warm-Edge-Technologien mit Silikon als Sekundär-Dichtstoff.
Während eines der Hauptmerkmale von Dichtstoffen auf organischer Basis in ihrer geringen Gasdurchlässigkeit besteht
(was eine größere Fertigungstoleranz erlaubt), haben diese Dichtstoffe eine geringere Haftbeständigkeit am Glas. Dies
schränkt ihre Verwendungsmöglichkeit dort ein, wo eine höhere Haftbeständigkeit erforderlich ist, beispielsweise für
Isolierglasanwendungen mit UV-Einwirkung auf der freien Glaskante und /oder mit sehr hohen Anforderungen an die
Wetterbeständigkeit. Silikondichtstoffe hingegen zeigen hervorragende Eigenschaften hinsichtlich ihrer Haftfähigkeit und
ihrer UV-Beständigkeit. Dies macht sie zum Material der Wahl für Architektur- und Projektverglasungen sowie für hoch
beanspruchte Dachverglasungen. Angesichts von weltweit mehr als 20 Jahren erfolgreicher Verwendung von
Silikondichtstoffen sind die hervorragenden Eigenschaften und die hohe Nutzungsdauer von dual versiegelten mit Silikon
abgedichteten Isoliergläsern eindeutig nachgewiesen.
Bei neuen Isolierglas -Systemen hat sich gezeigt, dass argongefüllte und mit Silikon abgedichtete Isoliergläser, die unter
Verwendung von Dow Corning 3362 hergestellt wurden, so produziert werden können, dass sie die Forderungen von EN
1279-3 (und /oder DIN 1286-2) zuverlässig erfüllen. In den letzten fünf Jahren sind mehr als 20 gasgefüllte und
silikonabgedichtete Isolierglas-Systeme unter Verwendung von Dow Corning-Dichtstoffen erfolgreich am Markt
eingeführt worden.
Folglich können nun dual versiegelte mit Silikon abgedichtete Isoliergläser hergestellt werden, die nicht nur eine
hervorragende Beständigkeit und Nutzungsdauer aufweisen, sondern auch die strengen Forderungen der Branchennormen
hinsichtlich der Gasdichtigkeit zuverlässig einhalten.
Bedingt durch die dem Silikon eigene Gaspermeabilität sind besondere Konstruktions- und Fertigungsmaßnahmen
erforderlich, um sicherzustellen, dass das Isolierglas-System als Ganzes gasdicht ist. Diese Überlegungen fallen primär in
die Verantwortung und den Aufgabenbereich der Isolierglas -Hersteller.
1. Einige der Konstruktionsmaßnahmen betreffen eine Verkleinerung der für den Gasverlust verfügbaren Fläche oder eine
Verlängerung der betreffenden Wegstrecke. Andere derartige Maßnahmen sehen gebogene Abstandshalterecken, einen
integrierten Gasfüllvorgang, halbautomatische Anlagen zur PIB-Applikation und (erwärmte) Inline-Pressen zur PrimärAbdichtung mit PIB vor. Es konnte auch gezeigt werden, dass Randverbundsysteme für Isoliergläser, die wie der TPSAbstandshalter oder schaumbasierte Abstandshalter in der Lage sind, Bewegungen innerhalb des Abstandshalters
aufzunehmen, die Belastung auf die Primär-Abdichtung zu verringern und so die Gasverlustrate unter beschleunigten
Versuchsbedingungen wie auch unter tatsächlichen Nutzungs-Bedingungen zu verringern. Auch Systeme wie
beispielsweise Abstandshalter aus Edelstahl, die die durch Temperaturschwankungen bedingte Bewegung minimieren
können, zeigen deutlich bessere Ergebnisse hinsichtlich der Gasverlustrate. Und nicht zuletzt sind bei sekundären
Dichtstoffen nicht nur die elastischen Rückstellwerte, sondern ebenso das Zugspannungsverhalten (Elastizitätsmodul) zu
berücksichtigen. Für die Verwendung in
Isolierglas sind spezielle Typen von Silikon-Dichtstoffen wie beispielsweise Dow Corning 3362 HD entwickelt worden,
die ein sehr hohes Modul und ein sehr gutes Rückstellprofil unter Grenzbelastungen aufweisen. Mit diesen Dichtstoffen
konnte eine Verbesserung sowohl der Gasdichtigkeit als auch der anderen oben erwähnten Parameter erzielt werden.
2. Für gute Ergebnisse bei der Gasfüllung bzw. Gasverlustrate ist die Verarbeitungsqualität ebenso wichtig wie für die
erfolgreiche Produktion normaler luftgefüllter Isolierglaseinheiten. Es ist unbedingt notwendig, dass Glas und
Abstandshalter gründlich gereinigt sind, so dass Primär- und Sekundär-Dichtstoffe gut haften können, dass die
Abstandshalter-Masshaltigkeit gegeben, die vorgesehene Dimensionierung der Dichtstoffe eingehalten und natürlich der
Primär-Dichtstoff einheitlich und gleichmäßig ohne Störstellen aufgebracht ist. Auch die Sekundär-Dichtung darf keine
Lücken oder Störstellen aufweisen. Abweichungen davon können dazu führen, dass die PIB-Abdichtung übermäßig
beansprucht wird oder versagt und dass so durch diese primäre Barriere Gas entweicht. Zweikomponenten-Dichtstoffe
sind vorschriftsmäßig
zu mischen und im richtigen Mischungsverhältnis zu verwenden.

DESCRIPTION
Dow Corning® 757 Weatherproofing
sealant for photocatalytic clean glass
is a one part, neutral cure, architectural
grade sealant. It easily extrudes and
cures at room temperature by reaction
with moisture in the air to form a
durable, flexible rubber seal.
This low modulus sealant is specially
designed for the weathersealing of most
photocatalytic and hydrophilic clean

glass surfaces where high movement is
anticipated and high weather resistance
is required, in order to withstand
increased
temperature
and
UV
radiation.
with an appropriate tape to prevent
contamination of the substrate and to
ensure a neat sealant line. Masking tape
should be removed immediately after
Dow Corning® 757 Sealant meets the tooling and before the sealant starts to
following standards: conforms to ISO form a skin.
11600 G 25 LM and ISO 11431.

STANDARDS
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
Product safety information required for
safe use is not included. Before
handling, read product and safety data
sheets and container labels for safe use,
physical and health hazard information.
The material safety data sheet is
available on the Dow Corning website
at www.dowcorning.com. You can also
obtain a copy from your local
Dow Corning sales representative or
Distributor or by calling your local
Dow Corning Global Connection,
[email protected].
JOINT DESIGN
Primers
The sealant joint should be designed so
that the maximum expected sealant
movement,
including
thermal,
settlement and live load, does not
exceed ± 20% in order to achieve a
sufficient durability of the seal as well
as if exposed unprotected to the
weather
conditions
in
facade
applications.
A primer may be required to promote
adhesion on some substrates. Dow
Corning recommends that a test sample
be carried out prior to application. To
confirm adhesion, testing should
always be carried out prior the
commencement of any project. Please
consult Dow Corning Building Envelope
Manual or consult your local Dow USABLE LIFE AND
Corning sales office for further advice. STORAGE
