Used as a crosslinking agent in silicone-based formulations, enhancing thermal stability and mechanical strength of cured products. Commonly applied in high-performance coatings, adhesives, and encapsulants where resistance to heat and environmental degradation is required. Also serves as a coupling agent in composite materials, improving interfacial adhesion between organic polymers and inorganic surfaces. Its vinyl groups enable participation in hydrosilylation reactions, making it valuable in the synthesis of functional silicones for electronics and aerospace applications.
