Dow Corning brand primers, prime coats and adhesion promoters offer a variety of benefits to users. Robust adhesion maximizes reliability and offers protection across a wider range of environmental conditions. The range of device design options may be expanded by enabling adhesion or providing lower temperature adhesion to a wider variety of substrate materials. Low-temperature or room-temperature adhesion may also reduce energy or capital costs or increase manufacturing flexibility. Direct material costs may also be reduced when adhesion enhancers enable use of primerless silicones. - Many silicones are designed to adhere well to a wide variety of substrates, but some silicone products and some surfaces require adhesion enhancement to achieve adequate bond strength. Surface treatments to improve adhesion can range from simple cleaning to more complex etching and may require the application of reactive silane coupling agents to achieve optimal bonding.
