        Market Definition

        Silanes, also known as silicon hydrides, are compounds made up of silicon and hydrogen through covalent bonds. They can be produced by reacting magnesium silicide with acids or by reducing silicon chlorides with lithium aluminum hydride. Silanes come in two types: functional and non-functional. Functional silanes are useful when reactions with both inorganic and organic substances are needed, while non-functional silanes are effective with only inorganic materials. They serve various roles such as crosslinking agents, adhesion promoters, surface modifiers, coupling agents, and dispersing agents.
