Dynasylan® PTMO

Dynasylan® PTMO an alkyltrialkoxysilane is important component in sol­gel systems. Dynasylan® PTMO is a colorless, low­viscosity liquid. Dynasylan® PTMO is regarded as trifunctional since all three alkoxy groups can hydrolyze. Dynasylan® PTMO also contains a propyl group that adds hydrophobic character to sol­gel coatings. Hydrolysis leads to silanol groups which, in a subsequent condensation reaction, form very stable siloxane bonds (­Si­O­Si­). Condensation occurs parallel to hydrolysis once a certain amount of silanol groups have been formed. The absolute and relative rates of hydrolysis and condensation depend on a number of factors. The most important factors include pH, concentration, solvent, temperature and the catalyst.

Product Application

Dynasylan® PTMO reacts faster with water than Dynasylan® PTEO. To regulate the rate of hydrolysis and condensation a catalyst (mineral acids or ammonia, or even acetic acid and amines) can be added. Hydrolysis can also be furthered by adding a co­solvent such as an alcohol.

Key Properties
  • In some sol­gel applications Dynasylan® PTMO is partially hydrolyzed to form a preproduct that can be further crosslinked using temperature. This pre­hydrolysis often is done in conjunction with other organofunctional silanes (e.g. Dynasylan® GLYMO), silicic acid esters or even an aqueous silica sol.
  • This pre­product can be further modified by addition of organic resins or inorganic nanoparticles such as AEROSIL®. It is also possible to construct an inorganic/organic network by adding silanes containing organofunctional groups (e.g. aminopropyl groups) and organic resins.
  • The mixture is then cured using standard organic methods. In this way it is possible to obtain mar resistant coatings having a higher UV­stability than traditional organic coatings. This can also lead to more flame resistant materials than using traditional resins.
