Vinyltriethoxysilane is used as an adhesive for glass slides. It acts as a coupling agent on inorganic substances blended into polymers that function as adhesion promoters, crosslinkers, and surface modifiers. Further, it is used to prepare polymers.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
