Seminar objectives
This one-day seminar will show you how to use Geniosil® hybrid polymers (silane-modified polymers) to formulate sealants and adhesives. The course will include theoretical presentations and practical training in our lab, and will provide an overview of the properties of hybrid materials. We will demonstrate how fillers and other materials influence the properties of sealants and adhesives, how to formulate compounds correctly, and how to achieve the right properties in your material.
Target audience
Technical managers and R&D managers, technologists
