When the performance limits of traditional materials are reached, and precision manufacturing of complex components faces challenges, a material revolution that combines polymer processability with ceramic excellence is underway. We proudly present Organopolysilazane IOTA 9108 (Ceramizable Precursor Polymer). This is more than an innovative material; it is a platform with a “double life”: it first serves as a high-performance thermosetting resin, granting you unparalleled processing freedom. Subsequently, through a mild pyrolysis process, it can be “reborn in fire”, transforming into high-performance SiCN ceramic resistant to temperatures up to 1500°C, achieving the leap from “liquid formability” to “solid-state permanence.”
The core value of IOTA 9108 lies in its groundbreaking dual-function design. As a resin, its exceptionally low viscosity, short curing time, and diverse curing methods enable precision impregnation, coating, or molding of complex components. It exhibits excellent adhesion to heterogeneous materials like metals, ceramics, and graphite, making it an ideal matrix or adhesive for advanced composites. This solves the inherent brittleness and processing difficulties of ceramic materials.
Its true legend begins with the subsequent pyrolysis conversion. IOTA 9108 boasts a very high ceramic yield, allowing efficient, low-shrinkage conversion into homogeneous, dense SiCN (silicon carbonitride) ceramic under relatively mild conditions. This characteristic makes “easy fabrication of complex-shaped high-performance ceramics” via the polymer route a reality. The resulting SiCN ceramic possesses outstanding high-temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, and corrosion resistance, capable of meeting the most demanding environmental challenges.
Extremely Broad Application Prospects:
Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs): An ideal matrix precursor for aerospace engine hot-section components.
High-Temperature Systems: Serves as anti-oxidation coatings, corrosion-resistant coatings, and high-temperature adhesives to protect substrates like metals.
Precision Manufacturing: Acts as an impregnation agent for ceramic preforms to achieve net-shape forming of complex structures.
Material Innovation: Used in preparing metal matrix composites or unique organic-inorganic hybrid materials.
Choosing IOTA 9108 means selecting a shortcut from design freedom to peak performance. It breaks the traditional boundaries in the materials field, allowing engineers to design ultimate ceramic products as they would plastic parts. Whether you face extreme temperatures, wear and corrosion, or the pursuit of complex geometries, IOTA 9108 offers a smarter, more integrated solution.
