The first product advises it "resists solvents and dilute acids."   So if that's all that's going down the drain, mazeltov.  Monona

The black composite material that you are looking for is called PC-3
 
Please do consider replacing the sink, recommend it, or plan for it in the future..
 
Good Luck,
James

Subject: [DCHAS-L] lab sink question
 
Would appreciate any assistance with this random laboratory question-The plumber at my facility is asking me what type of putty/epoxy/sealant (I really don't know) he can use to repair the connection in our laboratory sink. It is where the sink basin connects to the drain. Over the years the old material has degraded and allowed for leaking. Any ideas on a specific product or even a generic material type?
 
The sink itself is the standard lab grade, black epoxy resin material you see in most labs.
 
Thanks,
