  • Silane USi-6122 – N-Dodecyltriethoxysilane

    Long-Chain Alkyl Silane with Ethoxy Groups for Controlled Hydrophobization & Durable Surface Protection

    CAS No.: 18536-91-9
    Molecular Weight: 332.59 g/mol
    Chemical Name:
    N-Dodecyltriethoxysilane

    Silane USi-6122 is a high-purity long-chain alkyl functional organosilane featuring a hydrophobic C₁₂ (dodecyl) tail and three hydrolyzable ethoxy groups. It chemically bonds to inorganic surfaces—such as glass, silica, alumina, and minerals—to form dense, water-repellent monolayers with excellent durability. The ethoxy functionality offers slower hydrolysis and lower volatility than methoxy analogs, enabling better process control in coating and filler treatment applications.


    🧪 Product Description

    Chemical Formula: CH₃(CH₂)₁₁Si(OC₂H₅)₃
    Chemical Structure:
    ![Structure: C₁₂H₂₅–Si(OC₂H₅)₃]

    USi-6122 combines the exceptional hydrophobicity of a C₁₂ alkyl chain with the controlled reactivity of triethoxysilane:

    • The long dodecyl chain provides low surface energy, promoting water beading and anti-wetting behavior
    • The three ethoxy groups hydrolyze more slowly than methoxy groups—reducing odor, improving pot life, and allowing uniform film formation
    • Forms covalent Si–O–M bonds with metal oxides (e.g., SiO₂, Al₂O₃), ensuring long-term adhesion and resistance to leaching

    Compared to its methoxy counterpart (USi-6121), USi-6122 is preferred in applications requiring gentler reaction kinetics, lower VOC emissions, or compatibility with ethanol-based systems.

    🏭 Key Applications

    🔹 Durable Waterproofing of Inorganic Substrates

    • Effectively treats glasssilicaaluminakaolintalcmicaSiCceramics, and porcelain
    • Enhances compatibility with organic polymers (e.g., polyolefins, rubbers) in composites
    • Improves mechanical propertiesmoisture resistance, and electrical performance of filled materials

    🔹 Anti-Fog & Anti-Condensation Treatments for Glass

    • Applied to:
      • Untreated and coated architectural glass (anti-reflective, reflective, vacuum-deposited)
      • Optical componentsprecision instruments, and metal-framed devices
    • Prevents fogging by reducing surface energy—water forms droplets and rolls off cleanly
    • Maintains optical clarity while providing robust environmental protection

    🔹 Conservation of Outdoor Cultural Heritage

    • Protects stone monumentshistorical sculpturesarchaeological sites, and heritage buildings from:
      • Water ingress and capillary rise
      • Salt efflorescence and freeze-thaw damage
      • Acid rain etching and biological weathering
    • Breathable treatment: allows vapor transmission while blocking liquid water—preserving structural integrity without trapping moisture

    🔹 Surface Modification of Fillers & Pigments

    • Improves dispersion stability and reduces viscosity in non-polar polymer matrices
    • Minimizes agglomeration and sedimentation in sealants, coatings, and masterbatches
    • Enhances impact strengthsurface finish, and hydrophobicity of final products

    📦 Packaging

    Available in industrial-grade containers:

    • 20 kg pail
    • 180 kg drum
    • 890 kg IBC tote

    All packaging is sealed to prevent moisture exposure and maintain product quality.


    ⚠️ Safety & Storage
