Summary of Core Advantages

  1. Construction Flexibility: Tack-free time is adjustable from 1–60min, matching different construction schedules; low viscosity (≤4000mPa·s) facilitates pouring/applying.
  2. Structural and Fire Performance: Compressive strength >40MPa, capable of balancing sealing and structural reinforcement; A3 fire rating + 4 hours of fire resistance at 1200℃, with significant advantages in high-fire scenarios such as buildings and power (e.g., substations, data centers).
  3. Excellent Electrical Insulation: Dielectric strength >45kV/mm and surface resistivity ≥1.5×10¹⁵ Ω·cm, far exceeding international brands (generally at the 10¹² Ω·cm level), especially suitable for insulation sealing of high-voltage electrical equipment (e.g., GIS switchgear, wind power converters).
  4. Flame Retardancy and Low Smoke: LOI ≥36 and smoke density ≤30, effectively inhibiting flame spread and smoke generation during fire, improving personnel escape and equipment protection efficiency.
