Multi-use Aminofunctional Alkoxy Polysiloxanes

Technology Benefits

With 100% selectivity of the hydroxyl moiety, potential market applications include coatings, adhesives, sealants, rubbers, elastomers, catalyst supports, sol-gel/ceramic precursors, components in molecular sieves, chromatography columns, polyelectrolytes and electrochemical sensing devices. Minimal purification required with only hydrogen gas produced as side product. Cost-effective production, relative to the comparable hydrosilation process. Extended shelf life for amino-silicones.

Detailed Technology Description

Linear and cyclic polysiloxanes with pendant amine moieties have been synthesized with hydroxyalkyl-amines. The reaction exhibits 100% selectivity of the hydroxyl moiety over the amine moiety of aminoalcohols at the reactive Si-H site, leaving the pendant amine functionality intact on the product. No side reactions, including that of rearranging the polysiloxane backbone occurs. The reaction is a one-pot process with minimal purification required since the only side product is hydrogen gas. Compared to the hydrosilation process, the process is cost effective on a per/mole catalyst basis. The amino-silicone end products have an extended shelf life (months) under normal precautions.
