With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, 5G communications and other industries, the market demand for high-performance polymer materials continues to rise. Recently, the modified material IOTA 278 developed by a domestic scientific research team has attracted the attention of the industry. This functional additive with phenyl trisiloxane as the core structure is providing a new solution for the performance optimization of basic materials such as epoxy resin.
According to technical data, the product adopts a diglycidyl group end-capping design, presents a colorless to light yellow liquid property (viscosity 30-50cst), and has an epoxy equivalent of 260-340g/equ. Its special molecular structure can form a stable cross-linked network during the curing process of the material, and effectively improve the technical pain points of traditional epoxy resins, such as high brittleness and poor temperature resistance, by reducing the cohesive energy of the resin system. Experimental data show that the composite material with the addition of this additive can still maintain good mechanical properties in the range of -40℃ to 200℃.
At the application level, the material has been successfully applied in many industrial fields. A well-known electronic device manufacturer revealed that after the introduction of this technology, the thermal shock resistance of its circuit packaging materials has increased by 40%, effectively solving the cracking problem in extreme temperature environments. Auto parts companies use it to improve the toughness of polyurethane materials and extend the service life of shock-absorbing components by more than 30%. What is more noteworthy is that the excellent electrical insulation (volume resistivity> 1×10¹⁵Ω·cm) and weather resistance of the substrate given by this material have shown its application potential in cutting-edge fields such as photovoltaic module packaging and satellite protective coatings.
Industry experts pointed out that with the advancement of the "dual carbon" strategy, material modification technology is becoming the key to achieving lightweight and durable goals. The promotion and application of environmentally friendly additives such as IOTA 278 (solvent-free) is not only in line with the trend of green manufacturing, but is also expected to drive my country's core competitiveness in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace and new energy equipment. According to market institutions, the global epoxy resin modifier market size will exceed US$5 billion
