Dynasylan® MTES

Dynasylan® MTES by Evonik is methyltriethoxysilane. Acts as a cross-linking agent. It is an alkyltrialkoxysilane is an important component in solgel systems. It is regarded as trifunctional since all three alkoxy groups are able to participate in this reaction. Additionally, it contains a methyl group that adds organic character to the products. Hydrolysis leads to silanol groups which, in a subsequent condensation reaction, form very stable siloxane bonds (SiOSi). It is also possible to construct an inorganic/organic network by adding silanes containing organofunctional groups (e.g. aminopropyl groups) and organic resins as well as polymerizing using standard organic methods. Dynasylan® MTES is listed on EINECS/ELINCS, AICS, DSL/NDSL, PICCS, TSCA, ECS, ENCS and ECL.
