Abstract

Organosilicon varnishes, such as polymethylphenylsiloxane and polyaluminomethylphenylsiloxane, filled with modified clay minerals are the object of research The most vulnerable place of the organosilicon coating is insufficient mechanical properties (hardness, impact strength, etc.) and low adhesive strength of the film to the surface, especially when operating at elevated temperatures. Various oxides, ceramic compounds, natural and synthetic silicate materials are introduced into organosilicon compositions to improve the specified properties. But only individual units can comprehensively improve both the mechanical and heat-resistant properties of organosilicon compounds although the range of such materials is quite wide.

The clay minerals palygorskite, which is classified as an intermediate type between strip and layered silicates, and montmorillonite from the subclass of layered silicates, which have a natural high dispersion, were used as fillers during the study.

The choice of palygorskite and montmorillonite is explained by the sufficient study of their behavior in organic environments by a number of scientists, availability and economic advantages for introduction into production. Existing clay minerals, which are traditionally used to solve the problem of improving the physical and mechanical properties of organosilicon coatings, are not sufficiently active due to the hydrophilic properties of the particles surface. Based on this, a modifier that has proven itself well in this field was used for the study.

A number of compositions of heat-resistant organosilicon varnishes with modified fillers based on the above-mentioned clay minerals were obtained. It was established that the introduction of modified forms of natural aluminosilicates contributes to the increase of temperature resistance in filled coatings, compared to coatings made of pure polymer. At the same time, the best effect is achieved when using montmorillonite. This is related with the fact that the proposed compositions of polymethylphenylsiloxane varnish and montmorillonite have a number of features, in particular, the highest comprehensive result of simultaneous improvement of the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of the specified coatings.

It is possible to obtain compositions with stable physico-mechanical properties, as they withstood heat treatment at 400 °C for 100 hours without visible changes in integrity, due to the introduction of the optimal amount of modified montmorillonite into organosilicon varnishes KO-08K and KO-921. Compared to similar heat-resistant polymethylphenylsiloxane varnishes, longer service life at elevated temperatures is ensured.
