GENIOSIL MPTM is an alkoxysilane with a methacrylic organofunctional group. It´s a clear, colorless, light and heat sensitive liquid with a characteristically sweet odor. The silane hydrolyzes in the presence of moisture (methanol is released) to form silanols, which can then react with themselves to produce siloxanes. As a bifunctional, organically unsaturated molecule, GENIOSIL MPTM can be incorporated into organic polymers, e.g. via radical grafting.
