Gelest, Inc. has unveiled its new SIVATE^TM A610 activated amine functional silane, which improves adhesion, speeds reactivity and increases bond strength in packaging, polymer, micro-electronics and curing applications. Gelest offers SIVATE A610 activated amine silane for use as a tie-layer between organic and inorganic substrates in multi-layer packaging, a coupling agent for high speed epoxy adhesive bonding, phenolic resins, polyurethanes and polyamides, or a primer for high-speed UV-acrylated urethane cure systems.

SIVATE A610 silane is a proprietary combination of a cyclic azasilane with an amine functional silane that drives a thermodynamically-favored formation of silicon-oxygen bonds to nearly 85

Compared to conventional silanes, SIVATE A610 activated amine silane reacts at high speed and offers adhesion and bonding with a wider variety of substrates, including titanium, copper, aluminum, and EVA copolymers and cellulosic resins.

The introduction of SIVATE^TM A610 activated amine silane is an example of Gelest’s customer-centric research and development. For more information or to request samples, visit Gelest, Inc. at www.gelest.com.
