Notes

①   MY 9108 will generate the coating film with no hardness, poor adhesion and transparency after 3 days cured in room temperature.

②   MY 9108 could be cured with high temperature, it will reduce the heating temperature and curing time by adding the thermal crosslinking agent，which has no effect on coating hardness, color, adhesion and other properties.

③   The UV cured coating of MY 9108 perform well in room temperature, but the high temperature resistance is poor as cured by UV, the coating will turn to be yellowing when the temperature up to 300℃+.

④   The operate temperature of MY 9108 coating is related to the film thickness. The higher thickness, the better protective performance, but it easy to crack in high temperature.

 

Cracking conditions

MY 9108 cured product converted to amorphous ceramics by high temperature cracking, eventually get crystalline ceramics. It is amorphous product below 1400 ℃, begin to crystallize above 1400 ℃. Ceramic product composition has great relationship with cracking atmosphere, SiC and Si3N4 under nitrogen or argon; mainly Si3N4 under Ammonia; mainly SiOCN under air conditions.

In addition, the cured product cracking is easily influenced by filler, and result affects the composition of the final ceramic product.

 

Compatibility

The product could be miscible with most non-polar solvents, such as alkanes, ethers, ketones, esters. Insoluble in alcohol and ether solvents, such as diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dibutyl ether, tetraethyl ether Butyl glycol ether.

It’s also miscible with a variety of resins, such as epoxy silicone resin, silicone resin, it will shorten the curing time and improve resin hardness when mixed with silicone resins.

 

Operation method

It should be carried out in a dry, cool and well-ventilated environment, away from heat and fire sources when using them.

 

Necessary protective measures, such as gloves, masks, etc., should be used when taking them; uncured ones should not be placed close to fire sources, humid air, or water.

 

When the polysilazane is opened and used, the container must be sealed in time. After use, replace the air in the container with nitrogen/argon, and store it in a sealed package.

 

Unused paint that has been formulated cannot be recycled and should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

 

Products beyond the shelf life can be used only after they have passed the test.

 

Package

Packed with metal container in 100ml, 1L and 5L.

 

Clean

Proper cleaning methods are important, quickly wipe down the surface with acetone or mineral spirits after use.

Once MY 9108 is cured, the coating cannot be washed away by solvent.

 

Precautions

The storage environment should be dry, cool and well ventilated, away from heat and fire sources. The packaging container must be kept tightly closed and handled with care. The storage temperature should be kept between 0°C and 20°C, and the storage period is 12 months.
