Silane – A Multifunctional Compound for Plastics
Silanes are versatile! They function as coupling and dispersing agents for fillers in rubber & plastics formulations, as polymerization modifiers for polypropylene synthesis, and as crosslinking agents for polyethylene homopolymers & copolymers. Due to the unique properties of silanes, they are used to enhance performance and processes in the plastics and rubber industries. Learn more about the chemistry of silanes and which mode of mechanism & filler treatment do they follow based on their functionality. Also, check out the benefits of using silanes along with their applications.
