Momentive Performance Materials will be demonstrating its latest
generation of SPUR+* prepolymers at the 2008 World Adhesives
Conference Expo on April 21 at the InterContintental Hotel in Miami,
Florida. In Booth #26, Momentive will showcase new technology for
developing fast-cure sealants and clear sealants based on its SPUR+
prepolymers, which can provide excellent primerless adhesion to a wide
range of substrates, including glass, concrete, granite and steel,
with great flexibility and weather resistance. Momentive will also be
displaying its full selection of organofunctional Silquest* silanes,
which can help customers to achieve adhesion over the entire spectrum
of sealant formulations and applications.
"We are very proud of this new generation of clear sealant and
fast cure sealant technologies," said Bruce Waldman, global marketing
manager, SPUR+ prepolymers. "Our clear sealants typically offer
crystal clarity and great adhesion to a variety of materials, while
our fast cure technology can provide both fast cure and very rapid
adhesion build. Coupling these new solutions with our SPUR+
prepolymers can give our customers the flexibility they need to create
more innovative, cutting-edge adhesives and sealants. Together with
our world-class selection of organofunctional silanes, this
breakthrough family of prepolymers underscores our commitment to
applying the latest and best chemistry to meet the most rigorous
performance requirements and challenges."
Experts from Momentive will be presenting new research papers and
