The use of silanes as cross-linking agents is based mainly on two industrial methods

• 2 December, 2022

Different procedures may be employed for the initiation of PE crosslinking.
These procedures are either physical or chemical nature. The main crosslinking
methods are:
·- crosslinking by radiation,
·- crosslinking by peroxides,
·- crosslinking by silane compounds.

PEX-b is a cross-linked polyethylene pipe obtained via the silane method, starting from high density polyethylene.

The use of silanes as cross-linking agents is based mainly on two industrial methods:
1) A TWO-STEP PROCESS (SIOPLAS)
2) A ONE-STEP PROCESS (MONOSIL)

Our YAC-V171 / Vinyltrimethoxysilane CAS 2768-02-7 is well performed for both manufacturing processes. We have safety stock in our Rotterdam warehouse. Our EU-REACH is registered on ECHA.
