Description

XIAMETER OFS-6040 Silane – 5 Gallon Pail

XIAMETER OFS-6040 Silane is a bifunctional silane containing a glycidoxy reactive organic group and a trimethoxysilyl inorganic group. It is designated γ- glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane. This glycidoxy functional silane is reactive with many different types of organic polymers.

XIAMETER OFS-6040 Silane possesses both organic and inorganic reactivity that allows it to react with or “couple” organic polymers and inorganic surface. This dual reactivity should be considered when using XIAMETER® OFS-6040 Silane in specific applications. XIAMETER OFS-6040 Silane is particularly recommended as:

• A treatment on glass fiber for use in reinforced plastics

• A treatment on mineral surfaces for use in mineral filled plastics

• An adhesion promoter to enhance the bonding of a polymer coating, paint or adhesive to glass, metals or other polymer surfaces.
