In recent days, many parts of China have experienced extreme temperatures of 40℃, reigniting concerns about safety issues such as electric vehicle fires and industrial fires. Compared to traditional silicone materials that easily melt and fail under open flames, a product called IOTA 9108, an organopolysilazane—a ceramicizable precursor polymer—is offering a new solution for high-temperature protection.
This product has low viscosity and a short curing time, allowing for rapid cross-linking at 120-180℃ and curing at 80-100℃ with the aid of a platinum catalyst. After pyrolysis, it produces SiCN ceramics that can withstand extreme temperatures up to 1500℃ and exhibit excellent adhesion to metals, ceramics, and graphite. The ceramic yield exceeds 55%, and after curing, it surpasses 75%.
In practical applications, it can be used to create high-temperature adhesives, anti-corrosion coatings, or ceramic-based composite materials, protecting everyday industrial facilities such as battery pack insulation layers and flue linings. Unlike ordinary resins that decompose upon exposure to fire, IOTA 9108 transforms into a ceramic armor when heated, adding a "silicon" shield to high-temperature safety.
