Andisil® 142 Silane

Andisil® 142 Silane by AB Specialty Silicones is alcohol-free siloxane significantly improves the adhesion and coupling between organic resins and inorganic surfaces. It is an aqueous solution of an aminoalkyl siloxane. It is most often used in aqueous systems where the alcohol from hydrolysis causes instability of the formulation or where a high flash point additive is required. It also reduces volatile organic content (VOC) and does not contain hazardous air polluting substances (HAPS). These benefits are particularly useful to manufacturers seeking to decrease emissions from their water-borne products and processes. In amino functionality, it reacts with many types of resins including vinyl and acrylic latexes, epoxies and phenolics. It promotes bonding to many inorganic materials. In silanol functionality, it adheres or couples with inorganic materials, such as siliceous fillers, glass and metal substrates. It is also used as an additive for water-soluble/dispersible resin formulations or as a surface treatment. It is applicable in water-based adhesives and sealant applications. Andisil® 142 Silane has a shelf life of 2 years.
