Silanes from Evonik's product portfolio effectively connect organic and inorganic components in water-based coatings. This significantly enhances the adhesion and long-term stability of coating formulations. By increasing the water resistance of coatings, silanes also contribute to corrosion protection. Additionally, increased abrasion and scratch resistance can be achieved. Silanes optimize water-based coatings into more robust, versatile, and environmentally friendly formulations.
