title: Solvent effects on bonding organo-silane to silica surfaces.
abstract: Interfacial bonding and stability of gamma-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane with silica surfaces have been studied by means of infrared spectroscopy. The addition of n-propylamine enhances silanization of gamma-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane to silica surfaces in normal aliphatic hydrocarbons, and cyclohexane yields a more water-resistant silica-silane bond, and improves the diametral tensile strength of the composite.
