Product Introduction
1. Product Introduction
KH-171, commonly known as Vinyl Trimethoxysilane (CAS No. 2768-02-7), is a high-purity vinyl-functional silane coupling agent widely used in industrial material modification. It is a colorless, transparent, low-viscosity oily liquid at room temperature, featuring unique dual reactive molecular structures: active vinyl functional groups and hydrolyzable methoxy groups. This stable molecular composition enables excellent interfacial bonding and crosslinking performance, laying a solid foundation for improving composite material comprehensive properties.
As a multi-purpose organosilicon crosslinking agent and adhesion promoter, KH-171 silane coupling agent serves as a critical bridge connecting inorganic substrates and organic polymers. It can form durable chemical bonds between glass fiber, silica powder, metal, ceramic and other inorganic fillers, as well as PE, PP, EVA, unsaturated polyester and other polyolefin materials. It effectively enhances interfacial adhesion, mechanical strength, waterproof performance, weather resistance and aging resistance of composite products. As a mainstream industrial silane product, KH-171 is widely applied in wire and cable crosslinking, plastic modification, functional coating manufacturing and new composite material industries across the globe.
