Technical Data

Application

Methyl chlorosilanes have one to three methyl groups. In the case of SiSiB® PC5220 dimethyldichlorosilane, dichlorodimethylsilane, two chlorine atoms are available, so that a reaction with excess water produces a linear chain of ether-like linkages between silicon atoms.

As in polyethers, these flexible linkages produce a rubbery polymer, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Trimethylchlorosilane (SiSiB® PC5310) can be used to induce branching and cross-linking in PDMS molecules, while chlorotrimethylsilane serves to end backbone chains, limiting molecular weight.
