3-(Glycidyloxy)propyldimethylethoxysilane

CAS Number
17963-04-1

Description

Epoxy functional silane coupling agent. Monofunctional grade — dimethyl plus a single ethoxy group on silicon — so it caps a chain end or a surface without adding crosslink density, unlike the di- and trifunctional glycidoxy silanes already in the range. The oxirane ring still reacts with amines, anhydrides and carboxyl groups.

Key applications

  • Surface silanization of hydroxylated substrates (silicon wafers, optical chips)
  • Bonded-phase preparation for chromatography
  • Chain-end capping in epoxy-modified systems
