Two component, pourable polysulfide elastomer designed for use in applications requiring a chemical resistant sealant for horizontal joints. forms a tight fitting synthetic rubber compound to effectively seal out water and many aggressive chemical solutions.
Ceilcote EJ-3 is a two-component, pourable polysulfide elastomer designed for chemical-resistant sealing of horizontal joints. It cures to form a flexible synthetic rubber compound that protects against water infiltration and many aggressive chemical solutions. With excellent adhesion to concrete, steel, and other construction materials, EJ-3 accommodates cyclic joint movement while maintaining long-term durability in demanding environments.
