Nhexadecyltriethoxysilane China
On the application of a silane in China
Since modern times, in China, the technology of chemistry has become more and more exquisite, and all kinds of materials are widely used. Among them, N - hexadecyltriethoxysilane this substance, which has attracted much attention.
N - hexadecyltriethoxysilane has unique chemical properties. In its structure, the long chain of hexadecyl gives it specific hydrophobicity, while the ethoxy group makes it able to react with the surface of many materials. In the vast industrial field of China, its use is wide.
In the construction industry, it can be applied to the surface of masonry, concrete and other materials. Because of the condensation reaction between the ethoxy group and the hydroxyl group on the surface of the material, a stable chemical bond is formed, and a tight hydrophobic film is constructed on the surface of the material. In this way, it can resist the erosion of rain, delay the weathering of the material, and improve the durability of the building. For example, when many ancient city walls in the north are repaired, this N-hexadecyltriethoxysilane is used to ensure that the masonry is not damaged over time.
In the world of textiles, it is applied to fabric treatment. The hydrophobicity of the hexadecyl group makes the fabric have the ability to reject water. Raindrops fall on the surface of the fabric, like lotus leaves exposed, rolling away without affecting the air permeability of the fabric. In the rainy land of the south, many outdoor clothing has been treated with this N-hexadecyltriethoxysilane, which is very popular among the people.
Furthermore, in the paint industry, the addition of N-hexadecyltriethoxysilane can improve the performance of coatings. Enhance the adhesion between the paint and the base material, make the coating firmer and less prone to peeling off. And its hydrophobicity can improve the water resistance of the coating and prolong the service life of the coating. All over the country, many construction and machinery coatings have improved quality due to N-hexadecyltriethoxysilane.
In summary, N-hexadecyltriethoxysilane plays an important role in the fields of industry and people's livelihood in China, and contributes to the development of China.
