Product Overview
IOTA 9150K is a liquid organic polysilazane specifically designed for ambient-curing coating systems. With its unique Si-NH-Si bond, IOTA 9150K can cure at room temperature, primarily through the hydrolysis and oxidation of Si-NH-Si. Additionally, the Si-NH-Si bond readily reacts with the -OH groups on the substrate surface, providing excellent adhesion to the substrate. By adding appropriate catalysts, the reaction between Si-H and Si-NH-Si can be further promoted, resulting in a three-dimensional cross-linked structure after curing, which significantly enhances the mechanical properties of the material. Due to its low viscosity and excellent adhesion, IOTA 9150K can be applied to various substrates, including metals, alloys, glass, paint films, and plastics (such as PP, PC, PVC, PMMA) through methods such as brushing, dipping, spraying, and roller coating.

Notes
-
[1] For heating curing of IOTA 9150K, it is recommended to perform after surface drying. The curing temperature can be selected within the range of 60℃-200℃, and the full curing time decreases with increasing temperature.
-
[2] The use temperature of IOTA 9150K coatings is related to film thickness. Thicker films provide better protective performance but are more prone to cracking at high temperatures.
Compatibility
-
Solvents: Compatible with most non-polar solvents such as alkanes, ethers, ketones, and esters; not soluble in various alcohol ethers such as diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, and tetraethylene glycol butyl ether.
-
Resins: Compatible with multiple resins such as epoxy silicone resins and organosilicon resins. Mixing with these resins can shorten curing time and increase resin hardness.
Operating Instructions
-
Usage Environment: Should be conducted in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated environment, away from heat sources and flames.
-
Protective Measures: Necessary protective equipment such as gloves and masks should be worn during use; uncured IOTA 9150K should not be exposed to flames, humid air, or water.
-
Container Sealing: The container must be tightly sealed immediately after opening. After use, replace the container's air with nitrogen or argon and store it in a sealed package.
-
Waste Disposal: Unused coatings that have been mixed cannot be recycled and should be disposed of according to local regulations.
-
Shelf Life Management: Products past their shelf life can be used after passing quality inspection.
Packaging
IOTA 9150K is packaged in 100ml, 1L, and 5L metal drums, ensuring safety and stability during transportation and storage.
Cleaning
-
Cleaning Method: After use, tools should be quickly wiped clean with acetone or solvent oil.
-
Post-Curing Cleaning: Once IOTA 9150K has cured, the coating cannot be removed by solvents and requires alternative cleaning methods.
Precautions
-
Storage Environment: Should be dry, cool, and well-ventilated, away from heat sources and flames.
-
Container Sealing: Packaging containers must be kept tightly sealed and handled with care.
-
Storage Temperature: The storage temperature should be maintained between 0℃-20℃, with a shelf life of 12 months.
