The research trend of silane coupling agent

The current commonly used three alkoxy silane coupling agent as the type, but three alkoxy type coupling agent could reduce the stability of the polymer matrix, so in recent years two alkoxy type attention to research and application of coupling agent.
Synthetic polymer with active silicon alkyl is also one of the developing direction of silane coupling agent, in this kind of coupling agent on the adhesive resin has better compatibility, can be formed in the glued surfaces a side, thus has better adhesive effect.
Base silane peroxide is also in recent years to research a kind of coupling agent, its characteristic is under the action of heat, decomposition of coupling agent generates free radicals, can happen with olefin polymers crosslinking, so as to promote the adhesion of vinyl polymers.
One of the important applications of silane coupling agents is the production of water crosslinked polyethylene, this process was developed by the United States dow corning corporation, has been commercialized.In recent years, the domestic in deal with wool fabric with silicone emulsion experiment, found with silane coupling agent and silicone emulsion and used, can improve the performance of wool fabric.
