Dynasylan® GLYMO

CAS Number
2530-83-8
Chemical Name
Trimethoxy(3-glycidyloxypropyl)silane
Chemical Family
Organosilane

Dynasylan® GLYMO is a bifunctional organosilane, featuring a reactive organic epoxide and hydrolyzable inorganic methoxysilyl groups. This dual reactivity empowers Dynasylan® GLYMO to chemically bond with both inorganic materials (e.g., glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (such as thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers). It functions as an adhesion promoter, crosslinking agent, and surface modifier.

Processing

Dynasylan® GLYMO may be used as a constituent of an aqueous size, neat, or added to the polymer matrix as an additive.. A chemical modification can be achieved by reaction with suitable functional monomers or polymers.

Reactivity

In the presence of water, the methoxy groups of Dynasylan® GLYMO hydrolyze to form reactive silanol groups which can bond to a variety of inorganic substrates.; The organophilic glycidyl end of Dynasylan® GLYMO can react with a suitable polymer.; Hydrolysis of Dynasylan® GLYMO can be catalyzed by organic acids such as acetic acid.; Examples of suitable inorganic substrates are glass, glass fibers, quartz, cristobalite and metals.; Dynasylan® GLYMO may be used with such polymers as epoxy, phenolic, polyurethanes, PVAC, acrylates, polysulfides.
