Dynasylan® 1401

The dual nature of its reactivity allows Dynasylan® 1401 to bind chemically to both inorganic materials (e.g. glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosets, thermoplastics and elastomers), thus functioning as an adhesion promoter, surface modifier and as a reactant for product modification.
Dynasylan® 1401 is a clear yellow liquid with an amine-like odor. It is soluble in alcohols and aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons.

Typical Applications

Dynasylan® 1401 can be used in many applications.
Examples are:
  • additive for cold-curing phenolic and furan foundry resins to improve the flexural strength of the sand-resin composites while maintaining the shelf life of the resin over long periods
  • starting material in the synthesis of amino-functional silicones
  • additive to phenolic resin binders for mineral fiber insulating materials
  • primer for additive to sealants and adhesives
  • additive and/or primer for improving the adhesion of paints and coatings to the substrate

Benefits at a glance

Important product effects that can be achieved through the use of Dynasylan® 1401 include:
- improved mechanical properties, e.g. strength, impact strength and modulus of elasticity
- improved moisture and corrosion resistance
- improved electrical properties, e.g. dielectric constant, volume resistivity
Dynasylan® 1401 can also improve processing properties such as
