Comparison of 590ml and 300ml silicone sealant
2025-04-24
It is well known that structural adhesive has two capacities, 590ml and 300ml. What is the difference for this two kinds? How to choose the most suitable sealant?
590ml silicone sealant advantage:
1. Convenient construction
1. Convenient construction
ØHigher extrusion efficiency: 590ml soft packaging usually adopts aluminum-plastic composite film or composite film soft packaging. When used with a special glue gun, the extrusion is smoother and the residue is reduced. Bottled glue (such as 300ml hard plastic bottle) may be difficult to extrude or have more residue due to the hard packaging material.
ØLarger construction area: A single 590ml structural glue can cover about 1-1.5CBM of hidden frame curtain wall panels. Compared with bottled glue, it has a larger capacity, reduces the frequency of replacement, and improves construction efficiency.

2. Packaging and storage advantages
ØLightweight and environmentally friendly: Soft packaging is lighter (such as 590ml composite film packaging), with lower transportation and storage costs, and packaging materials are easier to recycle, which is in line with environmental protection trends.

ØAnti-curing design: Unopened soft packaging structural adhesive has better sealing performance and a shelf life of more than 10 months, while poor sealing of bottled adhesive can easily lead to premature curing or deterioration of the colloid.
3. Economical and applicable scenarios
Lower overall cost: Although the price per stick may be slightly higher, the 590ml soft package has a lower unit volume cost and reduces construction interruption time, making it suitable for medium and large projects. Bottled glue is more suitable for small-scale repairs or non-structural scenarios.
300ml bottled silicone sealant advantage:
1. Functional diversity Subdivided functional adhesives: Bottled silicone adhesives are more clearly subdivided by use:
ØAnti-mold adhesive: specially used in high-humidity environments such as bathrooms and kitchens.
ØHigh-temperature resistant adhesive: suitable for high-temperature areas such as stoves and flues.
ØTransparent/colored adhesive: provides a variety of color options (such as transparent, white, black) to meet aesthetic needs.
ØTransparent/colored adhesive: provides a variety of color options (such as transparent, white, black) to meet aesthetic needs.
ØAcidic/neutral optional: Acidic silicone adhesive (cures faster, but may corrode metal) and neutral adhesive (non-corrosive) are optional to adapt to different materials.
2. Economical and easy to use
The price of ordinary bottled silicone sealant is usually lower than that of 590ml silicone sealant, which is suitable for small projects with limited budget.

3. Construction flexibility
ØSmall capacity design: small packages below 300ml reduce waste and are suitable for one-time or intermittent use.
ØNo strict construction specifications required: low requirements for glue seam width and thickness, no professional training required for operation.
