Shin-Etsu Silicones produces silicones and silicone products for the Paints and Coating Industry. They provide first rate silicone compounds to develop and increase the reliability and all around performance of a product. One such product type, Silane Coupling Agents, are used as a mediator that helps improve and support bonds between inorganic and organic materials. This allows for surface modification and resin modification to take place. It also aids in the increased adhesion and the enhancement of the mechanical durability of composite materials.
KBE-903 (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) is one of the most versatile coupling agents, having a broad range of applications in composites, coatings, adhesives, sealants, glass fibers and elastomers. KBE-903 has been utilized in many different materials including thermosets, thermoplastics, and elastomers such as acrylics, epoxies, phenolics, melamines, urethanes, polycarbonates, polyesters, nylons, polystyrenes, PET, PBT, ABS, polysulfides, and silicones. In the majority of these applications, the use of KBE-903 leads to exceptionally strong interaction between the inorganic and organic components of a given system. For example, KBE-903 is commonly used to improve the performance of silica or glass fiber reinforced materials. It can improve many properties such as adhesion to a wide variety of substrates like glass, ceramics, and metals; flexural, compressive, tensile, and interlaminar shear strengths; pigment...view more
