Inorganic ion capture agent IXE

Conventional organic ion exchange resins have the weaknesses of low heat resistance and poor resistance to organic solvents. Also, clay minerals and zeolite have been known as inorganic ion exchangers for long time. However, they have some weaknesses likepoor reproducibility of functions and lack of water resistance. IXE is a series of inorganic ion exchangers commercialized for the first time in the world by Toagosei to offset the weaknesses of conventional organic and inorganic ion exchangers.

Product Name

IXE

Features

IXE is an ion-trapping agent with superior ion-trapping and heat resistance properties. The reliability of electronic materials can be improved by adding this agent to sealants or other materials.

  • Superior heat resistance.
  • High ion selectivity; specific ions can be trapped through co-existing ions.
  • Effective even in conditions with almost no moisture.
  • Superior resistance to organic chemicals and to melting resins.
  • High resistance to oxidation, meaning it can be used in oxidized environments.

Mechanism of action

The reliability of electronic materials can be improved by adding this agent to trap the ions of impurities in sealants.

Without IXE

With IXE

Usage

  • IC encapsulating material (EMC, liquid sealing material, and more)
  • FPC adhesives and resist Inks
  • Paints (coating film durability, improvement of rust resistance effects)
  • Organic solvents, purification of monomers, etc.

Specifications

Ion scavenging effect

  • IXE is added to IC encapsulants to trap ionic impurities contained in the encapsulant.
  • Expected to improve the moisture resistance reliability of ICs.
