Used as a surface modifier in coatings and adhesives, this chemical improves adhesion to difficult substrates like glass, metals, and plastics. It enhances moisture resistance and thermal stability in sealants and encapsulants, making it valuable in electronics and automotive applications. Its dual reactivity allows coupling between organic polymers and inorganic surfaces, improving durability and performance in harsh environments. Commonly found in silicone-based formulations to reduce curing time and increase crosslinking efficiency. Also applied in specialty sol-gel processes where controlled hydrolysis and compatibility are critical.
