Powder Treatment
Application Areas
-
Functional Powders
Functional silanes impart hydrophobic, conductive, or optical properties to powders, enabling applications in self-cleaning materials, antistatic plastics, and optical films.
-
Coatings
Silane-modified powders provide good dispersion and wetting in anticorrosion and functional coatings, improving weatherability, water resistance, and adhesion.
-
Cable Materials
For flame-retardant fillers such as ATH and MDH, silanes enhance dispersion and flame retardancy, improving insulation and mechanical strength of cables.
-
Rubber Reinforcement
In silica and clay-filled rubber systems, silanes greatly improve bonding with rubber, enhancing wear resistance and dynamic properties.
Main Performance Improvements
-
Weatherability & Durability
Enhances stability and service life of powder-modified materials under UV, thermal aging, and chemical exposure.
-
Flame Retardancy & Electrical Properties
Enhances dispersion and compatibility of flame-retardant powders, improving flame resistance while optimizing insulation and dielectric properties.
-
Enhanced Mechanical Properties
Improves tensile, impact, and wear resistance of composites, meeting high-strength engineering requirements.
-
Hydrophobicity & Moisture Resistance
Imparts hydrophobicity to powder surfaces, reducing moisture uptake and ensuring stability in humid environments.
-
Better Dispersion & Flowability
Enhances powder dispersion in polymers or coatings, reducing viscosity and improving processing efficiency and uniformity.
-
Improved Interfacial Bonding
Silanes form chemical bonds on powder surfaces, strengthening interfaces with organic matrices and reducing defects.
