Can you do something to eliminate the characteristic “ammonia” odor of KiON polysilazanes?
Unfortunately, no. Much of the odor associated with KiON polysilazanes comes from slight hydrolysis of the polymers when they are exposed to moist air. While the extent of this hydrolysis is rather insignificant relative to the performance of the polymer, the small amounts of ammonia which are generated are readily detected by the human nose. In normal processing environments the amount of ammonia generated is orders of magnitude below the threshhold limits for ammonia exposure in the workplace.
