EC Number
254-896-5
Chemical Name
Bis[3- (triethoxysilyl) propyl] tetrasulfide
Chemical Family
Sulfide Compounds

AL69 is a bifunctional polysulfidic organosilane for the rubber industry. It is used to improve the reinforcing capability of fillers with silanol group on their surface (e.g., silicas, silicates, clay, etc.), and also as an integral part of curing systems to improve crosslinking network properties.
