Sealants are materials used to block the passage of fluids through surfaces or joints in various structures. They are typically made from polymers, silicones, or other synthetic compounds that provide flexibility and durability. Sealants work by filling gaps and creating a tight seal, which helps to prevent water, air, or dust from entering or escaping a space. They are commonly used in construction for sealing windows, doors, roofs, and joints in concrete or masonry.
