m-PEG3-Triethoxysilane
CAS: 2243566-45-0
Description:
m-PEG3-triethoxysilane is a functional silane linker with a methoxy PEG (polyethylene glycol) spacer and triethoxysilane group. The triethoxysilane moiety enables stable covalent attachment to glass, silica, and other hydroxylated surfaces through silanization, while the PEG3 spacer enhances solubility and reduces non-specific binding.
Key Features:
- Triethoxysilane Group: Reacts with hydroxylated surfaces, enabling stable silanization on glass, silica, and metal oxides.
- PEG3 Spacer: Improves solubility, flexibility, and minimizes non-specific binding, ideal for applications in surface modifications.
- Methoxy-Terminated PEG: Provides hydrophilicity and biocompatibility, reducing protein and cell adhesion.
Applications:
- Surface Coating: Used to functionalize glass and silica surfaces, creating a hydrophilic and biocompatible layer.
- Nanoparticle Functionalization: Ideal for modifying nanoparticles with reactive surfaces for biomedical applications.
- Biosensors and Diagnostics: Suitable for preparing surfaces in diagnostic assays, reducing background noise from non-specific interactions.
