DOWSIL™ 11-100 Additive

DOWSIL™ 11-100 Additive distributed by DKSH is a low viscosity, siloxane process aid/FR synergist. It contains alkoxy and alkyl functional groups on siloxane to improve LOI value for low smoke halogen free wire & cable material. It also improves dispersion of inorganic fillers, such as ATH/MDH into organic polymers such as resin, plastic, and rubber. It also will transform hydrophilic inorganic powders, fillers, or substrates to that of hydrophobic. The alkoxy groups react similarly to that of silane coupling agents, forming a stable bond with the mineral filler or surface. The alkyl functionality acts as both compatilizer with organic polymer matrices, as well as hydrophobic to reduce water absorption. It can be applied easily. The shelf life of DOWSIL™ 11-100 Additive is 18 months.
