Applications & Uses

Markets: Adhesives & Sealants,
Paints & Coatings
Applications: Adhesives & Sealants — Other Adhesives & Sealants Applications
Paints & Coatings — Other Paints & Coatings Applications
Compatible Polymers & Resins: Epoxies (EP),
Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR),
Phenolic Resins,
Polyamides,
Polycarbonates (PC),
Polyesters,
Silicones
Applications: Epoxy functional silane used as an adhesion promoter (coupling agent) for organic/inorganic interfaces, as a surface modifier (e.g. regulating surface polarity) or as a crosslinking agent (moisture-curing of polymers)

When used as coupling agent, it generally reduces the sensitivity of the products’ mechanical and electrical properties to heat and/ or moisture

Soluble in water after hydrolysis, alcohol, acetone and most aliphatic esters at normal application levels under five percent.
