Product Information

• Name: DIMETHYLDIMETHOXYSILANE, 99+%
• Synonyms: DMDMOS
• Brand: Gelest
• Description: Alkyl Silane - Conventional Surface BondingAliphatic, fluorinated aliphatic or substituted aromatic hydrocarbon substituents are the hydrophobic entities which enable silanes to induce surface hydrophobicity. The organic substitution of the silane must be non-polar. The hydrophobic effect of the organic substitution can be related to the free energy of transfer of hydrocarbon molecules from an aqueous phase to a homogeneous hydrocarbon phase. A successful hydrophobic coating must eliminate or mitigate hydrogen bonding and shield polar surfaces from interaction with water by creating a non-polar interphase. Although silane and silicone derived coatings are in general the most hydrophobic, they maintain a high degree of permeability to water vapor. This allows coatings to breathe and reduce deterioration at the coating interface associated with entrapped water. Since ions are not transported through non-polar silane and silicone coatings, they offer protection to composite structures ranging from pigmented coatings to rebar reinforced concrete. A selection guide for hydrophobic silanes can be found on pages 22-31 of the Hydrophobicity, Hydrophilicity and Silane Surface Modification brochure.Dimethyldimethoxysilane; DMDMOS; DimethoxydimethylsilaneViscosity, 20 °: 0.44 cStΔHcomb: 3,483 kJ/molΔHform: 716 kJ/molDipole moment: 1.33 debyeVapor pressure, 36 °C: 100 mmCoefficient of thermal expansion: 1.3 x 10-3Provides hydrophobic surface treatments in vapor phase applicationsDialkoxy silane
