CFS-043 2-(3,4-Epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane

CAS No.: 3388-04-3

CFS-043 2-(3,4-Epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane is an epoxy-functional silane containing both an epoxy functional group and hydrolyzable trimethoxy groups. It promotes the interfacial bonding between organic resins and inorganic materials.

CFS-043 is mainly used as an adhesion promoter, crosslinking agent, and surface modifier in coatings, adhesives, sealants, and composite materials to improve adhesion, water resistance, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties.

Key Functions

CFS-043 2-(3,4-Epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane can be used as:

· Silane coupling agent

· Adhesion promoter

· Crosslinking agent

· Surface modifier

· Primer additive

Its trimethoxysilane groups can bond with inorganic surfaces, while the epoxy functionality can react with suitable organic polymers. This enables effective coupling between:

Inorganic materials ↔ CFS-043 ↔ Organic resins

thereby improving interfacial bonding.

Applications

CFS-043 2-(3,4-Epoxycyclohexyl)ethyltrimethoxysilane is mainly used in:

· Coatings

· Sealants

· Furniture adhesives

· Automotive sealants

· Marine coatings

· Waterborne acrylic coatings

· Waterborne polyurethane coatings

· Electronic encapsulation materials

· Electronic packaging materials

· Glass fiber and inorganic filler surface treatment

· Epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic, and polysulfide resin systems

In coatings and sealants, CFS-043 improves adhesion between resins and substrates while enhancing water resistance, corrosion resistance, and durability.

In waterborne acrylic and polyurethane systems, it can function as a crosslinking agent and adhesion promoter.

In electronic encapsulation materials, it can improve bonding performance and electrical properties.
