What are the common types of sealant?

The most common types of sealants are solvent release sealing compounds (these have a putty-like consistency); pre-formed sealing tapes (100 \% solids systems); hot melt (also called “hot-flow”) sealants, which are thermoplastic systems; and curing sealants (one component, two component).
