- Product Highlights
Pipes and cables produced from silane-crosslinked polyethylene (PE-Xb) using USi-401 are more resistant to heat and weathering than products made from non-crosslinked polyethylene. They also have improved electrical properties. The storage stability is greatly enhanced in formulations of silane crosslinking adhesives and sealants. Use of USi-401 as a co-monomer in polymer dispersions results in binders which exhibit much improved wet scrub resistance and higher abrasion resistance thanks to crosslinking and improved adhesion to the substrate.

- Applications
Silane USi-401 is an essential ingredient in many industries as below :
- Moisture curing of polymers: For the preparation of moisture-curing polymers.
- Adhesion promotion & surface modification : As an efficient adhesion promoter for various mineral-filled polymers.
- As co-monomer for polymer dispersions : Improve adhesion strength in wet conditions and scrub resistance.
- As moisture scavenger : Can react rapidly with water
- Other applications : Can easily bond with OH-group. Hydroxyl containing polymers; it is activated by its proximity to silicon
