Product Information

• Name: Trimethoxymethylsilane
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Trimethoxymethylsilane is a chemical compound that is used to form a hydrophobic surface on zirconium oxide. It is commonly used in the production of dental prostheses and surgical implants. The reaction solution for this process contains sodium carbonate, which reacts with trimethoxymethylsilane and water to form sodium methanolate, which reacts with zirconium oxide particles to form a hydrophobic surface. Trimethoxymethylsilane has been shown to be chemically stable in human serum and methanol solutions. The gel pores formed by this compound are smaller than those formed by other similar compounds, such as octyltrimethoxysilane or hexamethyldisilazane.
