Silanes and Other Coupling Agents, Volume 1

This book documents the proceedings of the symposium on Silanes and Other Coupling Agents held in honor of Dr. Edwin P. Plueddemann, in Midland, Michigan, April 3--5, 1991. Dr. Plueddemann pioneered the development of silanes and worked in this field for many decades. The contributions to this symposium were by invitation only and the articles have previously been published in four special issues of the VSP publication Journal of Adhesion Science and Technology. The book opens with a summary of the professional and personal life of Dr. Plueddemann. The remaining 37 papers are divided into four parts. The topics covered include: Reminiscing on silane coupling agents (by Dr. Plueddemann himself); silanes as adhesion promoters; stability of silanes in aqueous solution, and the methods to improve the performance of silane coupling agents; kinetics of hydrolysis and condensation of silanes; adsorption of silanes studied by XPS, IETS, FT-IR; characterization of silanes by TOFSIMS; acid-base characteristics of silane treated glass; plasma polymerized organosilanes; applications of silanes in promoting adhesion, e.g. of polyimide coating and resist pattering layer, and in composites; adhesively bonded joints and bonding of dissimilar thermoset materials; and non-silane coupling agents: zirconium based, zircoaluminates and metal alkoxides.
