Abstract

A polysulphide-containing two-component adhesive/sealant consists of a binder component and a curing agent component, and is suitable for use as the secondary seal in the edge region of the insulating glass and/or for bonding the insulating glass unit in the frame or window sash of a window unit in a friction locked manner according to the process of rebate base bonding or back bedding.

Claims (32)

1 . Two-component adhesive/sealant consisting of a binder component and a curing agent component, wherein

A) the binder component contains

5 to 50% by weight of epoxidised alkylene polysulphide,

5 to 25% by weight of at least one plasticizer,

20 to 70% by weight of at least one filler,

0.1 to 10% by weight of an adhesion promoter, and

B) the curing agent component contains

20 to 50% by weight of at least one plasticizer,

0.1 to 40% by weight of at least one amine-terminated liquid rubber,

1 to 10% by weight of an accelerator,

10 to 60% by weight of at least one filler,

up to 10% by weight of carbon black,

and the sum of the constituents of component A or B respectively each totals 100%, wherein the components A and B are to be mixed at a ratio of 2:1 to 1:2.

2 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the plasticizer is a phthalate plasticizer or a benzoate plasticizer.

3 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the plasticizer is a benzoate plasticizer selected from the g oup consisting of benzoic acid esters of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, tetraethylene glycol, propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, tetrapropylene glycol, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentane diol, hydroxypivalic acid neopentyl glycol esters, and mixtures thereof.

4 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the adhesion promoter is selected from the group consisting of 3-glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane, 3-glycidoxypropyl triethoxysilane 2-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)ethyl triethoxysilane, 4-(methyl diethoxysilyl)-1,2-epoxycyclohexane, 3-(3,4-epoxycyclohexyl)propyl tri-(isobutoxy)silane, and mixtures thereof.

5 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the amine-terminated liquid rubber is an aminoterminated butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer (ATBN).

6 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the aminoterminated butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer (ATBN) has an acrylonitrile content of 10 to 30%.

7 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the aminoterminated butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymer (ATBN) has a molecular weight of 2,000 to 5,000.

8 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 wherein the curing agent component B further contains up to 10% by weight of an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polyamine.

9 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the accelerator in the curing agent component B is selected from the group consisting of imidazoles, Mannich bases, guanidines, monofunctional mercaptans, and mixtures thereof.

10 . A method of providing a secondary seal in an edge region of an insulating glass and/or bonding an insulating glass unit to the base of the rebate of a window frame or window sash in a friction locked manner and/or bonding a lateral edge region of insulating glass panes to parallel inner surfaces of the rebate of the window frame or window sash, comprising utilizing the adhesive/sealant of claim 1 .

11 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component A contains 30 to 60% by weight of the fillers.

12 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component A contains 0.5 to 4% by weight of the adhesion promoter.

13 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component B contains 1 to 5% by weight of the accelerator.

14 . The adhesive/sealant as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the component B contains 1 to 10% by weight of carbon black.

15 . A multi-pane insulating glass unit, comprising the adhesive/sealant of claim 1 .

16 . A window unit comprising a multi-pane insulating glass unit and a window sash or window frame, wherein the insulating glass unit is bonded to the window sash or window frame with the adhesive/sealant of claim 1 .

17 . A method of making a multi-pane insulating glass unite comprising utilizing the adhesive/sealant of claim 1 as a secondary seal.

18 . A method of making a window unit, comprising bonding an insulating glass unit to a window sash or winder frame with the adhesive/sealant of claim 1 .

19 . a multi-pane insulating glass unit prepared by the method of claim 17 .

20 . A window unit prepared by the method of claim 18 .
