    Silicone glue and glass glue are similar, both belong to adhesives.but their properties are different. Silicone sealant is more like an ointment. Once in contact with moisture in the air, it will solidify into a rubber-like solid material, which is often used for bonding and sealing glass. And the glass glue is mainly composed of sodium silicate and acetic acid, which is easily soluble in water and has good viscosity.

    The glass glue should be placed in a cool and dry place. If the glass glue has been opened but not used up, the glue bottle should be kept in a sealed state. And we should remove the blockage when use again. Silicone sealant should be used up in a short time.
