The effects of hydrolysis and condensation processes on the molecular structure of γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (γ-GPS) in aqueous solutions were investigated using Fourier-transform nuclear magnetic resonance (FT-NMR) spectroscopy. Hydrolysis was characterized by monitoring the production of m...
