Abstract:
A composition comprising a mixture of:a) an organosilane of the formula RnSiX4âˆ’n where n is an integer of from 0 to 3; and R is, independently, a nonhydrolizable organic group; and each X is, independently, a hydrolyzable group; with b) a polyol selected from the group consisting of (i) glucose, sucrose, fructose, mannitol, ascorbic acid and optionally including an anti-oxidant, adenosine, glucuronic acid, glucurone, dextrose, cellulose, partially hydrolyzed cellulose, soluble starch, a starch-acrylic acid graft copolymer, a nucleoside, a nucleotide, an oligonucleotide, or a polynucleotide; (ii) an aldose, ketose, or aldose or ketose oxidized or reduced in a single step; (iii) substituted aldose, substituted ketose, or substituted aldose or substituted ketose oxidized or reduced in a single step; (iv) a polymer of aldose, a polymer of ketose, a polymer of aldose and ketose, or any thereof oxidized or reduced in a single step; and (v) a substituted polymer of aldose, a substituted polymer of ketose, a substituted polymer of aldose and ketose, or any thereof oxidized or reduced in a single step; and c) water; wherein said organosilane amounts to about 20% or less by weight of said composition.
