It should be noted, however, that although the ability to form strong bonds is paramount, the need for solution compatibility is not. Dependent on the actual formulation used, some degree of incompatibility is acceptable this widens the choice of silane. Thus, researchers in Europe have found that other silanes, such as y-methacryloxy propyl trimethoxy silane (Silquest A-174) have proved to be equally, if not more, efficacious when used with various adhesive chemistries, including epoxy.
