Corrosionpedia Explains Epoxy Siloxane

Epoxy siloxane coatings contain inorganic polysiloxane, which is then reacted with organic resins (e.g., epoxy) to optimize desirable properties such as cohesive strength.

Epoxy siloxane coatings have several advantages over other coatings, including:

  • Lower volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions
  • Higher rates of cross linking density
  • Lower negative effects on health, safety and the environment
  • Improved weathering
  • Greater resistance to nuclear radiation
  • Greater chemical resistance
