Applications
The amine-alkyl functionality of GP-342 provides a versatile reaction site for the synthesis of a wide variety of silicone-organic copolymers, which may be tailored for use in textiles, coatings, car polishes and many other applications. The presence of polar amine groups also gives greater affinity to many substrates, suggesting uses of GP-342 in lubricant, coating and mold release formulations. Some specific applications are listed below:
- Rubber and Plastic Mold Release
- Internal Mold Release
- Detergent Resistant Car Polishes
Processing and Safety Guidelines
GP-342 is an alkaline material because of its amine content. Care should be exercised in handling to prevent contact with skin or eyes. Wear safety glasses with side shields and rubber gloves when handling. When used in spray applications, avoid breathing vapors. Consult Safety Data Sheet for additional details.
Packaging/Handling/Storage
GP-342 is supplied in 5-gallon (18 kg.) pails, 55-gallon (200 kg.) drums and 330-gallon (1200 kg.) totes.
