GENIOSIL UPTM

Besides the application of GENIOSIL UPTM as an adhesion promoter in formulations and primers, it is also used as a coupling agent for modifying fillers and pigments to enhance dispersibility in organic binders and plastics and thereby improve mechanical properties (flexural strength, tensile strength, modulus etc.). GENIOSIL UPTM is an alkoxysilane with a functionalized amino group. It´s a clear, colorless to light yellowish liquid with a characteristically aromatic odor. The compound reacts with moisture under hydrolysis of the alkoxy groups and forms silanols, which reacts further forming siloxanes. As a bifunctional alkoxysilane, GENIOSIL UPTM can also interact with numerous organic polymers and thus function as a molecular bridge between organic and inorganic substrates.
