Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a novel organosilicon compound, and in particular to a novel organosilicon compound useful as an alkoxysilylating agent, a curing agent, a scavenger, or other storage stability imparting agent. [Background technology]

[0002] Various types of room-temperature-curable silicone compositions are known, which cure at room temperature upon contact with moisture in the air. Among these, compositions that release alcohol upon curing have no unpleasant odor and are less likely to cause chemical cracking in the resin, making them suitable for use in sealing, bonding, and coating electrical and electronic devices.

[0003] Examples of alkoxysilylating agents that introduce alkoxy groups into organopolysiloxanes include various alkoxysilanes, such as methoxysilanes, ethoxysilanes, and nitrogen-containing silylating agents such as those described in JP-A-5-345888 (Patent Document 1).
