Andisil® 6021 Silane

1 of 500 products in this brand
Andisil® 6021 Silane is a bifunctional silane possessing a reactive amino groups and hydrolysable methoxysilyl groups. The dual nature of its reactivity allows it to bind chemically to both inorganic materials (e.g. Glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. Thermoplastics, thermosets or elastomers).

Applications & Uses

Compatible Reinforcements
Applications
  • Used as adhesion promoter at organic/inorganic interfaces, for modification of surfaces (corrosion prevention, component of primers) or siliconepolymer or as crosslinker (moisture crosslinking of polymers).
  • Used as a coupling agent leads to in general to an improvement of mechanical and electrical product properties above all under exposure to heat and/or moisture.
  • Soluble in alcohols and aliphatic as well as aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • Maximizes the physical and electrical properties thermoset and thermoplastic composites. Filler wetting and dispersibility in the polymer matrix are also improved.
