Silicon-based release coatings for molding applications
A tunable, photo-driven tri-cure coating system based on alkoxysilane chemistry that adheres strongly to mold substrates and offers adjustable surface properties (hydrophobic to hydrophilic, ~60–110° contact angles) for ...
Recyclable silsesquioxane/siloxane hybrid vapor barrier coatings for paper packaging
Recyclable phenyl-rich silsesquioxane/siloxane hybrid coatings designed for paper substrates that deliver water vapor and oxygen barrier performance comparable to conventional multilayer films. Applied via flexographic o...
Pla(pha)-silicone hybrid polymer for sustainable, aluminum-free barrier packaging
A novel PLA(PHA)-silicone-PLA(PHA) hybrid polymer designed as a one-sided co-extrusion water barrier layer for bio-based packaging. The material uses short PLA/PHA oligomer anchors to embed silicone at the surface, repla...
Non-destructive raman spectroscopy for alkoxysilane hydrolysis analysis
Leverage Raman spectroscopy for non-destructive, high-throughput analysis of alkoxysilane hydrolysis. This method offers quantitative SiOH/SiOR ratio determination even in water-containing solutions, enhancing production...
