DOW Silicones Corporation DefendAir 200 Silicone Liquid Applied Air and Weather Barrier
Uncontrolled air leakage can be a significant contributor to increased heating and cooling costs.
DOW Silicones Corporation DefendAir 200 helps reduce energy consumption, providing fast, easy
and effective protection from air infiltration and water penetration.
DOW Silicones Corporation DefendAir 200 is a 100% silicone liquid-applied air and water barrier.
Long-term UV resistance means no performance issues from extended sun exposure –
whether due to unanticipated construction delays prior to cladding installation or to
normal exposure in rainscreen applications.
The vapor-permeable, one-component, water-based coating dries to form a flexible
membrane that is impervious to water but has the ability to “breathe,” allowing water vapor
to escape from inside the substrate.
