Silane USi-A203 – Triacetoxyethylsilane (Ethyltriacetoxysilane, ETAS)
High-Reactivity Acetoxysilane Crosslinker for Acid-Cure Silicone Sealants
CAS No.: 17689-77-9
EINECS No.: 241-677-4
Molecular Weight: 234.3 g/mol
Chemical Name:
Triacetoxyethylsilane
Synonyms:
Ethyltriacetoxysilane, ETAS, ETASilane USi-A203 is a fast-reacting acetoxysilane crosslinker specifically engineered for one-component RTV silicone rubber and acidic-cure construction sealants. With ≥96% purity, it enables rapid moisture-driven vulcanization, excellent adhesion to glass and metals, and reliable performance in high-humidity environments—making it ideal for glazing, sanitary, and industrial sealing applications.
🧪 Product Description
Chemical Structure:
C₂H₅–Si(OCOCH₃)₃USi-A203 leverages the reactivity of three acetoxy groups combined with an ethyl backbone:
- Upon exposure to atmospheric moisture, it hydrolyzes rapidly, releasing acetic acid and forming reactive silanol intermediates
- These silanols condense with hydroxyl-terminated silicone polymers (e.g., PDMS) to build a 3D siloxane network
- The ethyl group offers slightly higher hydrophobicity and flexibility compared to methyl analogs, fine-tuning elastomer properties
- Particularly effective in acidic silicone glass sealants, where it ensures strong, durable bonds to non-porous substrates
✅ Key Advantage: A high-purity, fast-cure acetoxysilane that delivers superior adhesion and processing reliability in demanding RTV-1 silicone formulations.

🏭 Key Applications
🔹 RTV Silicone Rubber & Sealants
- Primary or co-crosslinker in acetoxy-cure RTV-1 silicones
- Enables fast surface cure and deep-section vulcanization even under high humidity
- Widely used in construction sealants for windows, bathrooms, and kitchens
🔹 Acidic Silicone Glass Sealants
- Preferred crosslinker for glass bonding applications due to its excellent adhesion profile and compatibility with standard silicone base polymers
- Forms durable, flexible seals resistant to weathering and thermal cycling
🔹 Industrial & OEM Formulations
- Supplied as a key intermediate to sealant manufacturers who compound it into finished products under controlled conditions
- After curing, fully integrated into the silicone matrix—no free monomer remains, minimizing exposure risk
⚠️ Safety & Storage
- Corrosive: Releases acetic acid during cure—use in well-ventilated areas
- Store in tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from light
- Keep away from heat and open flame
- Consult the latest Safety Data Sheet (SDS) at www.usi-chemical.com or upon request
