IOTA-540 is 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, a subsidiary of Iyota Silicone Oil, which is a magical adhesion promoter. Its amino group and methoxy group respectively play the role of coupling organic polymers and inorganic fillers, making the combination of materials more tightly. This makes it a widely used adhesion promoter for a wide variety of thermoplastic and thermoset resins. It can greatly improve the physical and mechanical properties and wet electrical properties of reinforced plastics, and improve the wettability and dispersion of fillers in polymers.
In resin sand casting, IOTA-540 can enhance the adhesion of resin silica sand, improve the strength and moisture resistance of molding sand. In the production of glass fiber wool and mineral wool, adding it to the phenolic binder can improve moisture resistance and increase compression resilience.
Not only that, IOTA-540 is also widely used in various adhesives and sealing materials. It can improve the dispersion of pigments and improve the adhesion to glass, aluminum, iron and other metals, making it an indispensable component of many coatings. At the same time, it is also suitable for polyurethane, epoxy and acrylic latex paint, which can make the paint more evenly coated on various surfaces.
In addition, IOTA-540 also plays an important role in the production of cellulosic materials. In the pulp and paper making process, it can be used as a lubricant and a shear thickener to improve the mechanical strength and gloss of the paper.
IOTA-540 could also play a role in water treatment and oil field extraction. In water treatment, it can be used to treat scale and improve water flow properties. In oil field extraction, it can be used as a surfactant and thickener to improve the fluidity and adhesion of oil.
