Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention generally relates to an organosilanes useful in rendering surfaces hydrophilic, methods of making the organosilanes, compositions comprising the organosilanes, methods of treating surfaces with the compositions comprising the organosilanes, and the treated surfaces.


BACKGROUND

Silanes have a variety of known uses. For example, they can be used as monomers in making, elastomers, polymers and resins, as coupling agents, additives for various compositions such as detergents, household and personal care formulations, and as surface treating agents for rendering surfaces hydrophilic. Some silanes have multiple uses in a variety of applications.


Silanes used for the treatment of surfaces to render the surfaces hydrophilic have known hydrophilic groups bound to the silicon atom of the silane. Examples of these hydrophilic groups are polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide. However, polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide have some unwanted properties.


We see a long-felt need in the industries for organosilanes useful in rendering surfaces hydrophilic but that do not comprise either polyethylene oxide or polypropylene oxide. We think organosilanes not comprising either polyethylene oxide or polypropylene oxide and which render surfaces hydrophilic may enable greater formulation latitude in providing better compatibility with other materials and may have improved performance in some areas.


Silanes have been made by various methods including the direct process, hydrosilylation, and Grignard reactions.
