3-Mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane

3-Mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane

Physical and chemical properties

  • Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow liquid.

  • Reactivity: Thiol group participates in radical additions, oxidations, and metal coordination; ethoxy groups hydrolyze in moisture to form silanols.

  • Storage: Moisture-sensitive; store under inert gas (e.g., N₂).


Application

◦ Reinforcement of silica-filled rubber tires (improves abrasion resistance).

◦ Adhesion promoter in coatings, sealants, and composites.

◦ Intermediate for synthesizing advanced materials (e.g., functionalized nanoparticles).

Packaging and storage

Storage:

  • Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place.

  • Keep tightly sealed in the original container to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation.

  • Protect from direct sunlight and sources of heat, ignition, and static discharge.

  • Maintain storage temperatures below 30°C (86°F), ideally between 15°C and 25°C (59°F - 77°F). Avoid freezing.

  • Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, strong bases, and water/moisture.

  • Use groundings and bonding during transfer to minimize static electricity hazards.

  • Storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) is recommended for long-term storage or to maintain maximum purity, especially after opening.

Packaging:

  • Typically packaged in:

    • High-density polyethylene (HDPE) carboys or drums (e.g., 25 kg, 200 kg).

    • Epoxy-phenolic resin lined steel drums (e.g., 200 kg).

    • Stainless steel containers (for larger quantities or specific customer requirements).

  • Containers must be tightly sealed and moisture-proof.

  • Smaller quantities (e.g., for laboratory use) may be supplied in amber glass bottles with PTFE-lined caps, often under nitrogen, to enhance stability.
