TEGOMER® V-Si 7255 is a comb-like acryloxy-functional polysiloxane. Due to the cross-linkable end groups TEGOMER® V-Si 7255 can be used as reactive component in suitable polymers.
Typical Applications
By co-polymerization TEGOMER® V-Si 7255 can be introduced permanently in polymeric resins, like
TEGOMER® V-Si 7255 is used to hydrophobize the surface of hydrophilic fillers and flame retardants in acrylic based composites.In addition the dispersion of these fillers and flame retardants is improved. By the following co-polymerization it is linked to the polymeric matrix.
- PMA
- PMMA
- Polyolefin containing unsaturated double bonds
