DESCRIPTION:
GENIOSIL GF 80 is an epoxy functional alkoxysilane.
GENIOSIL GF 80 is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor.
CAS No.: 2530-83-8
The use of GENIOSIL® GF 80 as a coupling agent in mineral-filled plastics improves filler dispersibility, reduces its sedimentation tendency and greatly lowers the resin's viscosity.
GENIOSIL GF 80 can be applied in adhesives, emulsion paint, coatings and filler treatment.
USES OF GENIOSIL GF 80:
The use of GENIOSIL® GF 80 US as a coupling agent in mineral-filled plastics improves filler dispersibility, reduces its sedimentation tendency and greatly lowers the resin's viscosity.
In addition, it leads to higher filler
loading and a marked increase in water (vapor) resistance, as well as resistance to acids and bases.
As a component of adhesives and sealants, GENIOSIL® GF 80 US improves both adhesion to the substrate and mechanical properties such as flexural strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.
Application details:
GENIOSIL® GF 80 US is mainly used in the treatment of inorganic fillers (e.g. glass, mineral and glass wools, ATH, kaolin, mica, metallic oxides) for various polymer types, such as epoxy resins, urethane, melamine resins, EPDM, and for polysulfides, and an additive or primer in coatings, paints, adhesives and sealants.
GENIOSIL® GF 80 by Wacker is an organofunctional 3 is Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane.
GENIOSIL GF 80 is Used as an adhesion promoter in construction, joints and sanitary sealants.
GENIOSIL GF 80 is also recommended for construction adhesives, consumer/ DIY, wood and flooring adhesives.
GENIOSIL® GF 80 improves mechanical properties such as tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.
GENIOSIL® GF 80 acts as a coupling agent in mineral-filled plastics improves filler dispersibility, reduces its sedimentation tendency and greatly lowers the resin's viscosity.
GENIOSIL GF 80 leads to higher filler loading and a marked increase in water (vapor) resistance, as well as resistance to acids and bases.
As a component of adhesives and sealants, GENIOSIL® GF 80 improves both adhesion to the substrate and mechanical properties such as flexural strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.
GENIOSIL® GF 80 can work as a bridge between inorganic and organic substrates.
PROCESSING:
GENIOSIL® GF 80 US is highly miscible with standard organic solvents, such as alcohols, hydrocarbons and
acetone.
GENIOSIL® GF 80 US can be physically dissolved in neutral water to an extent upward of 5 wt %.
Much stronger homogeneous aqueous concentrations (up to 50% by weight) can be obtained by way of hydrolysis.
By incorporating a hydrolysis catalyst (e.g acetic acid), hydrolysis can be greatly accelerated at pH values of 3 to 4.
However, at pH values below 4, the epoxy ring may start to open.
