Applications and Performance:
1,6-Bis(trimethoxysilyl)hexane (CAS No. 87135-01-1), Silane coupling agent SCA-K06W, has some application as below:
1. RTV silicone sealants: To enhance the adhesion to the dry or wet surfaces and could form a stronger and weather resistance bond.
2. Metal surface treatment: The toxic properties of chromates have caused an environmental demand on replacement of the chromium (VI) compound coating processes (chromating). One of the suggested methods is a silane coating. SCA-K06W with bis-silyl functional has six hydrolyzable groups and are believed to be more crosslinked than triand tetra-functional analogs. The enhanced crosslinking leads to better barrier properties in anticorrosion applications.
3 silicone sealants: SCA-K06W provides higher crosslink density, faster curing speed, and better resistance to heat and humidity. For example, when used in alcohol-based two-component condensation sealants, it can achieve better resistance to the surface under dual 85 conditions.
