Aminosilane is a general term referring to silicon compounds with amino groups.
An amino group is a functional group represented by the general formula -NH2, -NHR, -NRR'. In many cases, it is used as a generic term for silane coupling agents with an amino group as a functional group (amino silane coupling agents).
Aminosilane compounds are mainly used in semiconductor manufacturing and as silane coupling agents.
Aminosilanes are used in semiconductor manufacturing for the deposition of silicon oxide films using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Examples of such substances include tris-dimethylaminosilane (3DMAS), diisopropylaminosilane, and bis(tert -butylamino)silane (BTBAS).
The main applications of amino silane coupling agents are surface treatment agents for glass fibers, resin modifiers, and adhesion aids. In particular, in the surface treatment of glass fibers, there is hardening that improves mechanical strength, heat resistance, water resistance, and electrical properties by chemically bonding glass fibers and resin.
Examples of specific substances include 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and N-benzyltrimethylsilylamine.
Applications of aminosilanes other than semiconductors and coupling agents include additives and primers for paints, adhesives, and coatings. They are useful as additives to phenolic resin binders and as additives to phenolic, furan, and melamine resins, which are foundry resins.
In the field of synthetic chemistry, it is sometimes used in synthetic materials, as are other organosilicon compounds.
3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (CAS No. 919-30-2), a typical aminosilane, has a molecular weight of 221.372, a melting point of -70°C, a boiling point of 119°C, and a liquid appearance at room temperature.
It has a density of 0.964 g/mL and a flash point of 96°C. It is soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone.
Aminosilane compounds are mainly sold as R&D reagent products and silane coupling agents.
Many substances are sold as reagent products for R&D, including 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and N-benzyltrimethylsilylamine, which are representative substances. They are available in volumes that are easy to handle in the laboratory. Depending on the substance, they are sold in relatively large volumes, such as 100g or 500g, or in smaller volumes, such as 1g or 5g. Normally, they are supposed to be stored in the dark.
Aminosilane is sold in many products as an industrial silane coupling agent. Various types of packing and capacities are available, including 1 kg, 5 kg, 16 kg, 180 kg, 190 kg, and 950 kg. Typical substances include 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, and 3-(N-phenyl)aminopropyltrimethoxysilane.
3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane, a typical aminosilane, is a substance that is hazardous to the human body and is classified by the GHS classification as follows
When handling, appropriate local exhaust ventilation and general ventilation should be provided, and personal protective equipment such as protective clothing and protective goggles should be used.
