A photocurable sealing material comprising at least a polythiol compound as a first component, wherein, in the case where the photocurable sealing material is used to produce two sheets having a thickness of 1 mm, a width of 25 mm, and a length of 200 mm, the two sheets are photocured by irradiation with an ultraviolet ray, then the photocured sheets are laminated, and the laminate is subjected to a load of 10 kg for 10 seconds, an action of causing the lamination interface between the two sheets to disappear is exhibited, and the self-adhesion strength in a T-type peel test is 5 N/25 mm or more when the sheets are pulled at a peel speed of 300 mm/min.

A wide temperature water borne sealant that can be applied at low temperatures. The sealant can be a latex sealant composition including at least one latex polymer, at least one freeze thaw stabilizer, and at least one peptone or at least one additive derived from a peptone. The latex polymer can be an acrylic latex polymer with a Glass Transition Temperature (Tg) of 0° C. or less. The peptone can be enzymatic hydrolysate. The sealant can remain pliable at low temperatures making it ideal for applications that require flexibility at low temperatures its' rheology and viscosity are such that it can be applied at temperatures below 0° C. The low Tg latex assures that the sealant will remain permanently flexible and non-tacky when cured, and the peptone provides the sealant with the means to prevent the water from freezing down to approximately −20° C.

Provided are an acrylic rubber composition having higher tensile properties and higher heat resistance and a vulcanizate thereof. An acrylic rubber composition includes 1 to 25 parts by mass of a layered clay mineral relative to 100 parts by mass of an acrylic rubber. The acrylic rubber is a copolymer of a (meth)acrylic acid alkyl ester and a curesite monomer.
