Silica gel has good weatherability and workability, and has been widely used as a bonding sealant in the construction industry, surpassing other types of sealants. In recent years, low modulus and high elongation two-component sealants have been developed, which are used for large components such as concrete precasts and curtain walls where joints are moved. Room temperature curing silica gel is also used for the sealing of joints in asbestos-cement slabs, sealing of bathroom bricks and washing appliances. With the decline in rubber prices in the future, the scope of application will be further expanded, such as the replacement of asphalt and neoprene in the application of road joints. The high temperature curing type silicone sponge strip is used as a door and window sealing molding for a building.
