BRB Silanil 505: A Bi-functional organosilane with outstanding adhesion promotion - News

Silanes are becoming increasingly complex and versatile in their applications due to their bifunctionality. BRB Silanil^® 505 is a perfect example of this. With two amino groups in its structure, it has the ability to serve as an excellent adhesion promoter, and the three ethoxy groups give it outstanding coupling agent properties.

Due to the ethoxy groups, BRB Silanil^® 505 will release ethanol when it autocatalytically hydrolyzes in the presence of moisture.

BRB Silanil^® 505 can be used in mineral-filled composites to improve mechanical properties and has also proven to be an excellent additive for foundry resins.

As an adhesion promoter, due to the presence of two amino groups, it is an excellent additive for improving adhesion to inorganic substrates such as metal or glass.

The bifunctionality is what makes it possible to bind both inorganic and organic polymers by forming a molecular bridge between the two substrates.

Keep in mind that BRB Silanil^® 505 will react as a strong base due to the two amino groups in its structure.
