Product Code:SP8010
Product Name:TETRA-N-PROPOXYSILANE
Product Introduction:
Tetra-n-propoxysilane (TPOS) is a silicon alkoxide with four hydrolyzable n-propoxy groups. It acts as a precursor for sol-gel processing to produce silica-based materials, coatings, and nano-composites. Its slower hydrolysis rate compared to methoxy or ethoxy analogs enables better control over condensation reactions. Used in ceramics, catalyst supports, and as a crosslinking agent for silicones.
