Genesee Polymers' GP-179 SILICONE RESIN is a 100% active ethoxy-functional methyl silicone resin, which is suggested for evaluation, as a reactive intermediate, in the synthesis of silicone-organic copolymers for protective coatings.GP-179 will slowly undergo hydrolysis and condensation to a cured resin film when exposed to atmospheric moisture, providing a water repellent protective coating for wood, masonry and metal substrates.When required, GP-179 SILICONE RESIN may be diluted with aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, or with dry alcohols, esters or other solvents.
