Used as a surface modifier in silicone-based coatings and adhesives to improve adhesion and durability. Enhances compatibility between organic and inorganic materials in hybrid composites. Acts as a coupling agent in dental resins and restorative materials, improving mechanical strength and moisture resistance. Employed in specialty coatings for optical fibers and electronic encapsulants due to its hydrophobic and thermally stable properties. Also utilized in the synthesis of modified siloxane polymers for release coatings and low-surface-energy films.
