Momentive Silquest A-137 Octyltriethoxysilane

Momentive Silquest A-137 is an octyltriethoxysilane coupling agent from the Silquest series, designed to enhance adhesion between organic polymers and inorganic substrates like glass or minerals. It improves dispersion, moisture resistance, and mechanical performance in sealants, coatings, and composites through hydrolyzable ethoxy groups and a non-polar octyl chain.

Features Of Momentive Silquest A-137 Octyltriethoxysilane

  1. Hydrophobic surface modifier that imparts water repellency and reduced surface energy to inorganic substrates.

  2. Reactive silane with three hydrolyzable ethoxy groups, enabling robust covalent bonding to silica, glass, metals, and metal oxides.

  3. Long alkyl (C8) chain provides enhanced compatibility with organic polymers and improved dispersion stability in non-polar media.

  4. Low volatility and favorable handling characteristics compared to shorter-chain alkylsilanes.

  5. Enables improved interfacial adhesion in filled composites, particularly in silica-reinforced elastomers and thermoplastics.

Typical Applications Of Momentive Silquest A-137 Octyltriethoxysilane

  1. Silica surface treatment for high-performance rubber compounds, including tire treads and industrial hoses.

  2. Adhesion promoter in sealants and caulks for glass, aluminum, and concrete substrates.

  3. Surface modifier for pigments and fillers in coatings, inks, and adhesives to enhance dispersion and reduce agglomeration.

  4. Hydrophobizing agent in construction materials such as grouts, mortars, and waterproofing admixtures.

  5. Functional additive in silicone-modified alkyds and hybrid resin systems for improved weather resistance.
