PALSUN® Chemical Resistance:

a. PALSUN glazing of all types are compatible with many common materials and chemicals, show limited

resistance to others, and are utterly incompatible with a third group, with which contact may be
harmful and even devastating.

Damage extent depends on type of material or chemical the glazing may be exposed to, and on the
nature and duration of said exposure.


b. PALGARD uncoated side reacts to the three chemical groups same as regular PALSUN, while the silica

coated face portrays higher resistance to materials & chemicals enabling better cleaning and graffiti
removal options. (See page 7)


c. A wider & more detailed table depicting PALSUN resistance to a wide range of chemicals appear in

Appendix 1, page XX.

Sealants, Sealing & Glazing Accessories, Bonding Agents & Adhesives:

Adhesives, sealants and Glazing Accessories are products & materials often required during installation of
PALSUN glazing.
Guidelines for their use, appearing below, must be followed:
1. Use only sealants, adhesives and rubber glazing strips, gaskets & sealing profiles compatible with

PALSUN and approved by PALARM or its distributors.
EPDM rubber sealing strips and gaskets are the preferred choice, (though the use of neoprene is
permitted) due to a longer life expectancy and durability.

2. Use of sealants, adhesives and other sealing products not included in PALRAM approved list must

receive the Manufacturer's explicit consent, to be obtained through your local distributor.

3. Use of soft PVC gaskets and/or sealing strips is absolutely forbidden. It is detrimental and may cause

severe glazing deterioration and failure.

3. Use of materials that are not on the list, and/or which have not received the Manufacturer’s explicit

approval, may harm the glazing and void all warranties and any responsibility of the Manufacturer for
the performance of PALSUN.

Your local distributor can provide additional information, and forward materials for testing and

evaluation of their compatibility with the PALSUN sheets.


The recommended list of sealants, bonding materials and adhesives could be obtained from your local
PALRAM distributor on request.
