Future-Proof Hybrids
In recent years, silane-modified polymers (SMPs), or silane-terminated polymers (STPs) from WACKER have become an integral component of a wide range of various adhesives and sealants. They have furthermore found their way into the automotive sector in recent years and have the potential to establish themselves in future application fields. What makes them so special? Uncover the secret behind the STP phenomenon with us!
Hybrids for Environmentally-Sound Performance
Most modern construction materials have been around for many decades. Of course, their quality has consistently evolved over time. Due to chemicals regulations such as REACH, some raw materials have been forced out of the market in order to minimize the risk exposure for users. Fortunately, with silane-terminated polymers a new technology has now emerged that combines many benefits.
We Make the Difference – for Our Environment
With GENIOSIL® STP-E, we offer a portfolio of high-quality hybrid polymers for the formulation of elastic sealants and adhesives that meet today’s requirements, both technical and ecological. GENIOSIL® STP-E based formulations are isocyanate- and solvent-free. Based on our proprietary α-silane technology, these formulations are also tin- free. Moreover, they are straightforward to formulate, their low viscosity allows for exceedingly efficient compounding and they are masters of versatility. All this makes GENIOSIL® STP-E based grades a sustainable alternative for established technologies.
In the following articles, you can extend your knowledge about the development of the α-silane technology at WACKER, learn what our experts think and uncover the secret behind the success of our STP-E polymers.
