Mechanism of action of IOTA-5064 propyl orthosilicate as a coupling agent

Hits: 242 img



As an organic silicon coupling agent, the mechanism of action of IOTA-5064 in materials science is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1 Enhanced interfacial bonding
The silanol groups generated by IOTA-5064 through hydrolysis reaction can form strong chemical bonds with the surface of inorganic materials (such as glass, metal, ceramics, etc.). The silicon-oxygen bonds formed between silicon atoms and the surface of inorganic materials can significantly improve the adhesion between the two and overcome the interface problems in traditional adhesive materials.

2 Improved durability and anti-aging properties
IOTA-5064 can effectively improve the weather resistance, moisture resistance and thermal aging resistance of materials. In coatings and sealants, the coupling effect of propyl orthosilicate improves the adhesion between the substrate and the coating, allowing the coating to resist erosion from the external environment and extend its service life.

3 Promote cross-linking reaction
In polymer materials, IOTA-5064 can form a three-dimensional network structure through cross-linking reaction, thereby significantly improving the hardness, thermal stability and chemical resistance of the material. For example, in silicone rubber and polymer matrices, IOTA-5064 acts as a crosslinker to promote crosslinking reactions between polymer chains, improving the overall performance of the material. This property makes IOTA-5064 particularly important in applications that require high strength and durability.
