Product Information

• Name: Bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide is a cross-linking agent that can be used to create polymer films. It has been shown to form hydrated films in deionized water, which have been studied with atomic force microscopy. Kinetic data for the polymerization of bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide has also been obtained by following the increase in viscosity of a solution containing a small amount of bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide and an organic modifier. Bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide is typically synthesized using solid-phase synthesis on carbon nanotubes or particles.
