Hydrophobic surface modification agent for inorganic substrates such as glass, silica, and metal oxides.
Provides excellent water repellency and improved resistance to moisture-induced degradation.
Enables covalent bonding via hydrolysis and condensation of ethoxy groups under mild acidic or neutral conditions.
Long alkyl (C8) chain ensures durable non-polar surface character and low surface energy.
Compatible with sol-gel systems, coatings, sealants, and functionalized fillers.
Water-repellent treatment of architectural glass and solar panel cover glass.
Surface functionalization of silica-based fillers in polymer composites and elastomers.
Key additive in high-performance anti-graffiti and self-cleaning coatings.
Moisture barrier enhancement in encapsulation materials for electronics and LED packaging.
Hydrophobization of aerogels and porous insulation materials.
