GENIOSIL DAPTM is an alkoxysilane with an amino-functional group.
Due to the nature of its amino group, GENIOSIL DAPTM reacts as a strong base.
The silane hydrolyzes autocatalytically in the presence of moisture (methanol is released) to form silanols, which can then react with themselves to produce siloxanes or can bind to inorganic substrates.
As a typical amine, GENIOSIL DAPTM can also interact with numerous organic polymers and thus function as a molecular bridge between organic and inorganic substrates.
