IOTA-540 is 3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (3-Aminopropyltrimethoxysilane) under Iota Silicone Oil. It is a magical adhesion promoter. Its amino and methoxy groups play the role of coupling organic polymers and inorganic fillers respectively, making the combination between materials tighter. This makes it a widely used adhesion promoter for various thermoplastic and thermosetting resins. It can greatly improve the physical and mechanical properties and wet electrical properties of reinforced plastics, and improve the wettability and dispersibility of fillers in polymers.

In resin sand casting, IOTA-540 can enhance the adhesion of resin silica sand, improve the strength and moisture resistance of molding sand. In the production of glass fiber wool and mineral wool, adding it to phenolic binder can improve moisture resistance and increase compression resilience.

Not only that, IOTA-540 is also widely used in various adhesives and sealing materials. It can improve the dispersibility of pigments and improve the adhesion to metals such as glass, aluminum, and iron, making it an indispensable component of many coatings. At the same time, it is also suitable for polyurethane, epoxy and acrylic latex coatings, allowing the coating to be applied more evenly on various surfaces.

In addition, IOTA-540 also plays an important role in the production of cellulosic materials. In the pulp and papermaking process, it can be used as a lubricant and shear thickener to improve the mechanical strength and gloss of paper.

IOTA-540 can also play a role in water treatment and oilfield production. In water treatment, it can be used to treat scale and improve the flow properties of water. In oilfield production, it can be used as a surfactant and thickener to improve the flow and adhesion of oil.
