GENIOSIL® WP2 is a mixture of a special polyether-basedsilan
e-terminated polymer and diisononyl cyclohexane-1,2-dica
rboxylate as viscosity adjuster. GENIOSIL® WP2 is suitable as a binder in low viscous, moisture curing formulations. It is a clear liquid with a slight but characteristic odor and differs to conventional silylated polymers due to its high reactivity. This is a direct consequence of the structural proximity of the nitrogen atom to the silicon atom in the dimethoxy(methyl)sil
yl-methylcarbamate group (alpha-effect). It hydrolyzes in the presence of moisture to finally form a stable siloxane network initiated by mild catalysis as opposed to heavy metal ions.
