Product Introduction

Silane Coupling Agent KH-470 | High Activity Amino Silane Adhesion Promoter|CAS 40372-72-3

1. Product Introduction

Silane Coupling Agent KH-470 is a high-activity bifunctional amino silane modifier with excellent interfacial bonding performance. It is a colorless and transparent oily liquid at room temperature, featuring unique high-reactivity amino functional groups and hydrolyzable alkoxy groups. Compared with conventional ordinary silane coupling agents, KH-470 delivers faster hydrolysis speed, higher crosslinking efficiency and more stable bonding effect, effectively solving the poor adhesion and interface peeling problems between inorganic substrates and organic resins.
As a versatile and high-performance adhesion promoter in the global fine chemical industry, Silane Coupling Agent KH-470 can firmly connect glass, metal, concrete, mineral fillers and other inorganic materials with epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic and other organic polymers. It significantly enhances interface bonding strength, water resistance, weather resistance and mechanical stability of composite materials. Our industrial-grade KH-470 features high purity, low volatility, stable batch consistency and excellent formula compatibility, fully compliant with international industrial coating, adhesive and composite material production standards, widely trusted by global industrial manufacturers.

3. Product Features & Applications

Core Product Features

  • High reaction activity & fast crosslinking: KH-470 high-activity amino silane has rapid hydrolysis and crosslinking reaction speed. It can quickly form dense and stable molecular bonding layers between inorganic substrates and organic resins, effectively improving interfacial binding force and solving common problems such as glue layer peeling and poor adhesion.
  • Excellent universal adhesion promotion: This silane coupling agent shows outstanding modification and adhesion enhancement effects on glass, metal, concrete, silica, calcium carbonate and various mineral fillers. It is compatible with epoxy, polyurethane, acrylic, polyester and most polymer systems with wide application adaptability.
  • Low volatility & high temperature resistance: Featuring low volatile content and stable thermal performance, KH-470 will not decompose or volatilize in large quantities during medium and high-temperature processing. It maintains stable interfacial adhesion performance and improves the high-temperature resistance of composite materials.
  • Superior water resistance & weather resistance: After crosslinking and film formation, it forms a hydrophobic stable interface structure, which significantly improves the water soaking resistance, moisture resistance and outdoor aging resistance of coatings, adhesives and composite products, extending overall service life.
  • Stable formula compatibility & easy operation: It can be uniformly dispersed in water-based and solvent-based systems without precipitation and delamination. Suitable for low-dose addition modification, it does not affect the original color, viscosity and mechanical properties of the base formula, meeting continuous industrial production needs.

Main Application Fields

  • Industrial Coating & Paint Industry: Used as adhesion promoter and interface modifier for epoxy coatings, polyurethane coatings, anti-corrosion paints and architectural waterproof coatings. It enhances the bonding force between the coating film and metal, concrete and glass substrates, effectively preventing coating peeling, blistering and cracking, and improving anti-corrosion and weather resistance performance.
  • Adhesive & Sealant Manufacturing: Widely added to structural adhesives, waterproof sealants, glass glues and industrial bonding agents. It improves the bonding durability of adhesives on inorganic surfaces, enhances water resistance and aging resistance of adhesive joints, and solves the problem of reduced bonding strength in humid environments.
  • Inorganic Filler Surface Modification: Applied for surface activation treatment of silica, talc powder, calcium carbonate, mica and other mineral fillers. It improves the dispersion uniformity of fillers in organic resins, reduces system viscosity, increases filler loading capacity, and enhances the mechanical strength and toughness of modified composite materials.
  • Glass Fiber & Composite Materials: Used as a surface treatment agent for glass fiber and fiber reinforced composite materials. It optimizes the interface combination between fiber and resin matrix, improves the overall compactness and structural stability of FRP products, and is widely used in building reinforcement and industrial composite parts.
  • Construction & Waterproofing Materials: Suitable for interface treatment of concrete, cement and stone substrates. It improves the adhesion between waterproof materials, repair mortars and base layers, and enhances the overall firmness and durability of building waterproof and reinforcement projects.

4. Packaging, Storage & International Sea Shipping

Packaging Standard

Standard export packaging: 200kg sealed iron drum with leak-proof and inner anti-corrosion treatment. Customized small specifications including 5kg, 25kg sealed drums and 1000kg IBC tote tanks are available upon customer requests. All packages adopt professional sealing, moisture-proof and anti-collision protection, fully compliant with long-distance international sea transportation and stacked warehouse storage standards.

Storage Requirements

Store Silane Coupling Agent KH-470 in a cool, dry, ventilated and dust-free indoor warehouse. Keep away from high-temperature heat sources, open flames, strong acids, strong oxidants and direct sunlight to avoid moisture absorption, hydrolysis deterioration and performance attenuation. The product is sensitive to humid air, so all packages must be tightly sealed during storage, transportation and use. The valid shelf life is 12 months under standard sealed storage conditions. Expired products must undergo full-index re-inspection before application, and only qualified products can be used for formal production.
