No, it is quite different and incompatible with liquid ballast.
SOME of the companies also make/market tire ballast for tractor and construction equipment. Many/most sealants tend to stay suspended in liquid ballast instead of coating the inside of the tire.
A good sealant in dry tires COULD save a number of flats & slow leaks and at the same time help with (dynamic) tire balancing.
It is at least worth considering for truck & trailer tires, I have no financial interest in it - just an FYI.
