Your Technology — Our Chemistry

As an Innovation company, Siltech has built our business and reputation by creating new silicones for customers with new applications.

Using our proprietary technologies, Siltech develops, manufactures and markets a full line of organo-functional specialty silicone materials for specific customer applications. Our broad portfolio of product types demonstrates our track record of innovation and outside-of-the-box problem solving. Our early history as an organic surfactant company gives us a different perspective from other silicone manufacturers and results in classic organic surfactant derivations to silicone such as Silamine^®, Silphos^® and Silquat^® grades. With more than 35 years of experience, and three manufacturing facilities, we offer the coatings industry a broad line of Siltech additives and Silmer® reactive silicones as well as more unique chemistries.

Siltech inks & coatings additives have long been recognized as providing special properties including improved slip, gloss, mar resistance, flow, leveling and foam control. Furthermore, because these silicones are efficient at very low use levels, they are cost effective, and widely used.

Our expertise in and portfolio of reactive silicones aligns with industry needs to bind into a coating as well as to modify resins to obtain hybrid mechanical properties. We have shown in many publications that Silmer reactive silicones can be reacted into films or resins to alter the properties of the final film. These materials increase flexibility, impact resistance, lower slip and COF, as well as provide improved stain resistance.

In addition to our extensive portfolio, Siltech welcomes the opportunity to partner with customers to develop unique silicones for specific applications.

ISO 9001:2008 and ISO:14001 Registered, Siltech is lessening our impact on the environment with plant actions, product offerings which use bio-sourced carbon, alternatives to regulatory targeted chemicals, carbon footprint calculations and internal targets and discussion.
