Henkel’s Teroson MS 9381 HPT complies with strict regulatory requirements, eliminating tin, solvents, isocyanates, silicones, and PVC from its formulation while simplifying processing and improving performance. The UV-resistant formulation is multi-substrate compatible, making it effective for various applications, including cabin window glazing, side paneling and roof skin bonding, and seam and joint sealing.

The product is a single-component, moisture-cure, silane-modified polymer (SMP), primeless adhesive sealant that simplifies the application process, reducing it to two steps versus the requisite three steps for conventional polyurethane (PU) materials. The adhesive’s high thixotropic properties and high position tack (HPT) ensure superior handling and application. These attributes help avoid potential errors, ensure processing efficiency, and offer the potential to lower the total cost of ownership. Furthermore, the ability to source a single material for multiple applications reduces supply chain and inventory control complexities.

Offering significant sustainability improvements, the formulation eliminated numerous substances of very high concern (SVHCs) to enhance health and safety, while at the same time offering validated emission-lowering capability. A product carbon footprint report from HEART (Henkel Environmental Assessment Reporting Tool) indicates that, as compared to traditional PU processes, Teroson MS 9381 HPT can potentially reduce CO₂ emissions by up to 50% from cradle to gate.
