This company will unveil two new silane-terminated polymers: GENIOSIL® XM 20 and GENIOSIL XM 25 at The European Coatings Show, taking place April 4-6 in Nuremberg, Germany.
They reportedly can be used as binders in adhesives and sealants, where they can modify the mechanical properties of the adhesive or sealant, in particular impacting modulus. This can allow for compounding without conventional plasticizers. In plasticizer-free adhesives, the new grades reportedly can also enhance the bonding properties, and in low-modulus sealants, they ensure high elastic recovery.
