Device and method for freezing pre-mixed two-component sealant compositions

Abstract

Described herein is a method of freezing a pre-mixed processable two-component sealant, the method including the steps of providing a pre-mixed processable two-component sealant in a sealed container; subsequently cooling the pre-mixed processable two-component sealant in the container with a coolant; the coolant not being in direct contact with the sealed container containing the pre-mixed processable two-component sealant; and the cooling being performed at a cooling rate allowing the pre-mixed processable two-component sealant to be cooled to a temperature at which a reaction between ingredients of the pre-mixed processable two-component sealant is suppressed and any pre-mature curing of the sealant has not proceeded to form an unprocessable two-component sealant. Also described herein is a device for freezing a pre-mixed processable two-component sealant, the device including a base plate; and one or more cylindric tubes. The device can be used in the method of freezing a pre-mixed processable two-component sealant.
