Non-stain / Non-bleed silicone sealant<br />
SILPRUF NB SCS 9000 Silicone Sealant, from GE<br />
Silicones, is a one-part, neutral cure, medium modulus,<br />
100% silicone polymer sealant, used <strong>for</strong> butt, expansion<br />
and lap shear joints in weatherproofing, glazing and<br />
curtain wall applications.<br />
Available in eight standard colours and in<br />
customised colours, SILPRUF NB SCS 9000 Silicone<br />
Sealant has a + or –50% joint movement capability.<br />
It has been specially <strong>for</strong>mulated to reduce or<br />
eliminate dirt pick-up and substrate staining from<br />
plasticiser bleed (fluid migration).<br />
The reduced dirt pickup characteristic allows<br />
SILPRUF NB SCS 9000 Silicone Sealant to be used as a<br />
substitute <strong>for</strong> organic sealants, with traditional silicone<br />
weatherability and long-life per<strong>for</strong>mance.<br />
It has good adhesion to a wide variety of materials,<br />
including glass, metal and plastics; marble, granite and<br />
other stones; concrete; and masonry.<br />
SILPRUF NB SCS 9000 Silicone Sealant may be<br />
factory- or field- applied. RnF<br />

Marble-like<br />
crystallised glass<br />
NEOPARIÉS crystallised glass was<br />
developed by Nippon Electric Glass Co<br />
Ltd after years of research. The<br />
manufacturing process involves a<br />
specialised glass crystallisation<br />
technique <strong>for</strong> producing needle-shaped<br />
crystals called wollastonite (CaO.SiO 2<br />
)<br />
which gives the glass a soft colour and a<br />
marble-like texture.<br />
Since its introduction into the market<br />
in 1974, Neopariés has received<br />
enthusiastic acceptance from architects,<br />
as a material <strong>for</strong> the exterior and interior<br />
walls of modern buildings.<br />
Neopariés is said to combine the<br />
lustre of marble, with greater hardness,<br />
lower weight, higher resistance to<br />
weathering, zero water absorption, and<br />
ease of <strong>for</strong>mation into curved panels. RnF<br />
