Dynasylan® 1189

Dynasylan® 1189 is a bifunctional silane possessing a reactive secondary amine and hydrolyzable methoxysilyl groups. The dual nature of its reactivity allows Dynasylan® 1189 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 or as a surface modifier and can be used for the chemical modification of substances. Dynasylan® 1189 is a colorless to slight yellowish liquid with a light amine­like odor which is, for example, soluble in alcohols, and aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbons.

Product Applications

Dynasylan® 1189 has many important applications.
Examples include:

  • As a size constituent or finish for glass fiber/glass fabric composites
  • As an additive to phenolic, furan and melamine resins used in foundry resins
  • As a primer or additive and for the chemical modification of adhesives and sealants
  • For pretreatment of fillers and pigments used in mineral- filled polymers
  • As a primer and additive for improving the adhesion of paints and coatings to the substrate
  • As a high flexible adhesion promoter in SMP­systems.

The most important product effects that can be achieved using Dynasylan® 1189 include:

  • Flexural strength, tensile strength, impact strength and
  • Modulus of elasticity
  • Improved moisture and corrosion resistance

Dynasylan® 1189 can also provide improvements in processing properties, such as

  • Adhesion
  • Filler dispersion
  • Rheological behavior: reduction in viscosity
  • Higher filler loading
Processing Information
  • For substrate pretreatments (inorganic fibers and fillers) Dynasylan® 1189 can be applied as a primer as a constituent of an aqueous size or solution, neat or added to the polymer as an additive.
  • For substrate pretreatment a concentration of approx. 0.5­2 percent is recommended.
  • Higher concentrations (1­5 wt.­ %) achieve chemical modification by reaction with suitable functional monomers or polymers, for example those containing isocyanate groups.

Product Reactivity
  • In the presence of water, the methoxy groups of Dynasylan® 1189 hydrolyze to form reactive silanol groups which can bond to a variety of inorganic substrates.
  • The organophilic n- butylamino group of Dynasylan® 1189 can react with a suitable polymer.
  • The hydrolysis of Dynasylan® 1189 in water takes place by acid catalysis (e.g. acetic acid at a pH of 3).
  • To achieve solubility in organic solvents 2­4 wt.­% of water per wt.­% of Dynasylan® 1189 should be added. After stirring for 5 hours the solutions are ready for use.
  • Examples of suitable inorganic substrates are glass, glass fibers, glass wool, wollastonite and kaolin.
  • Dynasylan® 1189 may be used with such polymers as epoxy, polyurethanes, PA, PBT, EVA, modified PP and silicones.
  • In particular, Dynasylan® 1189 is a very effective coupling agent for thermoplastics.
  • Superior mechanical properties can be achieved in reinforced MAA­modified PE or polypropylene matrices as well as polyamide.
  • Dynasylan® 1189 especially leads to improvement of the impact strength of polyamide.
  • Dynasylan® 1189 treated fibers and fillers deliver superior performance over standard aminosilanes in challenging environments.
  • Dynasylan® 1189 can be used as an endcapper for polyurethanes (isocyanatoprepolymer).
