Overview of Octyltriethoxysilane
Octyltriethoxysilane is an advanced organosilane coupling agent widely used as a surface modifier and water-repellent additive in construction, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and specialty chemical applications. It is a clear to slightly yellow liquid that reacts with inorganic substrates to form durable, hydrophobic surfaces. Its long alkyl chain provides excellent water repellency and surface protection.
Due to its strong ability to bond with mineral surfaces such as concrete, glass, ceramics, and metal oxides, Octyltriethoxysilane significantly enhances moisture resistance, durability, and weatherability of treated materials. It is commonly used in both industrial processing and building protection systems.
Related products available on our website and used in similar applications include Epichlorohydrin, Dimethyl Phthalate, Diphenyl Oxide, and Polyacrylic Acid. These chemicals are frequently applied in coatings, construction chemicals, and industrial formulations.
