Abstract:This report contains a product evaluation of Dow Corning 888 joint sealant. Dow Corning 888 is a one-part silicone material that cures to a low modulus silicone rubber upon exposure to atmospheric moisture. Its uses include transverse and longitudinal highway joints, bridge joints and runways. Two different test sections of Dow Corning 888 were placed in Phoenix. One section was placed to evaluate the sealant capabilities in concrete joints. The other test section was asphalt cracks and asphalt to concrete joints. Both sections were placed using tubes of sealant and caulking gun. The Dow Corning 888 joint sealant performed well. The sealant was pliable and adhered well to the joints. Based on field performance, the Arizona Transportation Research Center recommends allowing the use of Dow Corning 888 on Arizona projects. The Research Center will be placing a larger test section of joint sealants in northern Arizona. Dow Corning 888 will be placed in this test section. /Abstract from report summary page/
