Tensile Testing of Cold-Applied Joint Sealants
… expansion and contraction of concrete slabs. Sealants are commonly used in pavement joints to keep debris, deicing chemicals, and moisture out of the joint. When a joint sealant fails, the pavement can quickly deteriorate; however, when a joint sealant functions well, the pavement maintains …

Characterization and Lifetime Performance Modeling of Acrylic Foam Tape for Structural Glazing Applications
… testing was conducted on three structural silicone sealants to compare performance. Using the time temperature superposition principle, master curves of VHB tape storage and loss moduli in shear and tension were developed with data from a dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA). The thermal shift …

Performance Evaluation and Durability Studies of Adhesive Bonds
… insights into the long-term performance of silicone sealants designed for load-bearing applications such as solar panel support sealants. Using small strain constitutive tests and time-temperature-superposition principle, thermal shift factors were obtained and successfully used to …

Long-Term Performance of Polymeric Materials in Civil Infrastructure
… (HDPE) above-ground storage tanks (AST) and 2) silicone and self-healing polymeric concrete sealants. HDPE is a strong and durable plastic material that is commonly used to store a wide range of liquids ASTs. Currently, there are no established protocols for carrying out non-destructive testing …
