Products in Bonding & Assembly: Coupling Agent

Silquest™ Y-9627 is secondary aminofunctional bis-silanes. This category of silanes is generally useful to consider for a broad range of applications to promote adhesion in coatings, adhesives and sealants between organic polymers and glass, metal, wood or cast plastic substrates. Typically, they can function as coupling agents to particulate mineral fillers in composites, as in foundry molds and cores, to improve mechanical properties such as tensile and flexural strengths. These property improvements have been maintained in the presence of aggressive environments, such as high temperature and high humidity conditions.

Silquest™ A-1524 is a 100% active ureidosilane, silane which is specially formulated to promote superior adhesion across a wide range of applications including resins, substrates, fillers and reinforcements. Being 100% active, Silquest™ A-1524 silane contains no alcohol or other solvent diluent. These traits make Silquest™ A-1524 silane an excellent choice for use in reactive polymer systems such as isocyanate-terminated polyurethane polymers. With its methoxysilane ester reactive groups, Silquest™ A-1524 silane exhibits fast hydrolysis of the silane ester group.

From enhancing electronic encapsulants to enabling improved sealant formulations, Silquest™ A-186 silane provides both epoxy and silane functionalities that promote adhesion in a range of formulations, including SPUR+ prepolymer, urethane, epoxy, silicone, and acrylic caulks, coatings, sealants and adhesives.

Silquest™ A-1110 silane, a primary amino silane, is a candidate for use as an adhesion promoter in silane modified urethane (SPUR* prepolymer), filled silicone, epoxy and 2 part urethane adhesives and sealants.

Silquest™ A-1120N(beta-aminoethyl) gamma-aminopropyltrimethoxy-silane is diamino func tional silanes that may be used over a broad range of applications. They are used to promote the adhesion of amino-reactive resins such as silicone, silylated polyurethane, two-part urethanes and two-part epoxies to inorganic surfaces, plastic surfaces, and inorganic fillers or reinforcements.

Silquest™ A-Link 25 silane and Silquest™ A-Link 35 silane are unique isocyanate functional silanes. The isocyanate functionality exhibits the typical reactivity of an alkyl isocyanate and will react with most active hydrogen containing compounds. The silane portion of these products can then crosslink with each other or be used to adhere to a variety of substrates.

Silquest™ A-1170 is a Amino bis-silanes can be effective in reacting with epoxy, urethane, melamine, polyimide, phenolic and furan thermosetting resins, as well as many thermoplastics, such as polyamides and polyesters. Silquest™ A-1170 silane offers a fast cure time and/or rapid adhesion build. Because of its higher purity grade, Silquest™ A-1170 silane is an excellent candidate to consider for use in applications that demand low color and greater control of reaction stoichiometry. Silquest™ A-1170 silane is a versatile silane, and it may be added directly to polymers during system formulation or used independently as a primer.

Silquest™ A-1100 silane coupling agent, gamma- Aminopropyltriethoxysilane, a versatile amino-functional coupling agent may be an excellent candidate for use in a range of broad applications to provide superior bonding between inorganic substrates and organic polymers.

Silquest™ A-178 silane is a coupling agent for glass fiber and particulate filler reinforced composites. It is a 100% active methacrylamido functional silane that may be used to promote adhesion between a wide range of resins and substrates and reinforcements. It is also useful as a monomer in the synthesis of organic polymers. It functions as a moisture- activated crosslinking agent.

Silquest™ A-187 silane is specially formulated for use as an adhesion promoter in SPUR + * prepolymer, urethane, epoxy, polysulfide, silicone and acrylic systems for caulks, coatings, sealants and adhesives. Its epoxy functionality allows Silquest™ A-187 silane to perform as a durable epoxy ring that is reactive with many organic functions. It also offers non-yellowing adhesion in many resin systems and has proven to increase the flexibility of systems when compared to other adhesion promoters under certain conditions.

Silquest™ A-1387 Silane is a Silicone Release Coating.

Silquest™ A-1106 silane is an aqueous solution of an aminoalkyl siloxane. This alcohol-free siloxane improves signifi- cantly the adhesion and coupling between organic resins and inorganic surfaces. Momentive Performance Materials Silquest™ A-1106 silane is most often used in aqueous systems where the alcohol of hydrolysis causes instability of the formulation or where a high flash point additive is required. The product also reduces volatile organic content (VOC) and does not contain hazardous air polluting substances (HAPS). These benefits are particularly useful to manufacturers seeking to reduce emissions from their water-borne products and processes.

Silquest™ silane Y-9669 combines phenyl and amino functionality in the same molecule.It is an extremely effective adhesion promoter for many filled and reinforced resin systems. Silquest™ silane Y-9669 is a versatile adhesion promoter, particularly for resin systems that will react with a secondary amino group, such as isocyanates, acrylates, epoxies, phenolics and RTV silicones. This silane is especially useful when the resulting material must withstand higher temperatures; e.g., in phenolic resin/fiberglass composites.
