Around 1988, Volvo started using chemical gasket sealant in place of many gaskets in a variety of places on engine and drive train parts. Later models use it almost exclusively (paper style gaskets aren't available for many parts.)
This is an anaerobic sealer just like the factory Volvo sealer.
Use on (aluminum) oil pans, camshaft covers, timing covers, etc. Anywhere that you are mating two flat machined surfaces together.
It is ideal for sealing torsion-resistant metal parts that have flat surfaces.
Use by applying a thin, even film to the flat surfaces being mated and bolt/attach together.
*Please note: depending on the specific job you're doing you may need 2 tubes. For example replacing a head on a whiteblock will typically require 2 bottles.
