As the seasons turn around, we enter the vibrant spring. This season brings not only comfortable weather, but also unique challenges. In modern home life, the intelligence of home appliances has led to the increasing complexity of circuits, and the problems caused by the increase in humidity in spring cannot be ignored. If circuit boards cannot adapt to increased humidity, it may cause electrical failures or even safety accidents, affecting our daily lives.

IOTA-5172 (vinyl tris(2-methoxyethoxy)silane), provides an efficient solution. It not only enhances the compatibility between inorganic fillers (such as glass fiber) and organic matrices (such as epoxy resin) in printed circuit boards, but also introduces vinyl groups, providing additional cross-linking points and increasing cross-linking density. The three-dimensional network structure formed by these cross-linking points and the organic matrix effectively improves the microstructure of the material, thereby blocking the intrusion of water molecules and significantly improving the mechanical properties and electrical insulation properties of the material in the wet state. In addition, IOTA-5172 also improves the chemical stability of the material, reduces the risk of corrosion of metal conductive paths in humid environments, and effectively inhibits the growth of microorganisms and prevents mildew problems.

The application of IOTA-5172 does not stop there. It is also widely used to process flame retardants such as magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide, and to manufacture various flame retardant materials such as cable sheaths, flame retardant sheets and flame retardant coatings.
