  2. Silicon dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_dioxide

    Silicon dioxide, also known as silica, is an oxide of silicon with the chemical formula SiO 2, commonly found in nature as quartz. [5] [6] In many parts of the world, silica is the major constituent of sand. Silica is one of the most complex and abundant families of materials, existing as a compound of several minerals and as a synthetic product.

    Disiloxanes can be used as sealants for construction, paints, inks, and coatings, cosmetics, mechanical fluids, textile applications, and paper coatings. Commercial use of disiloxane is common in cosmetics. It is commonly found in products such as sunscreen, moisturizer, hair spray, eye liner, body spray, nail polish, makeup remover, and ...

  4. Silicon monoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_monoxide

    Silicon monoxide is the chemical compound with the formula SiO where silicon is present in the oxidation state +2. In the vapour phase, it is a diatomic molecule. [ 1 ] It has been detected in stellar objects [ 2 ] and has been described as the most common oxide of silicon in the universe.

  5. Silicon compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_compounds

    Silicon compounds are compounds containing the element silicon (Si). As a carbon group element, silicon often forms compounds in the +4 oxidation state, though many unusual compounds have been discovered that differ from expectations based on its valence electrons, including the silicides and some silanes. Metal silicides, silicon halides, and ...

    2 Me 3 SiCl + H 2 O → 2 HCl + O[Si(CH 3) 3] 2. It also results from the hydrolysis of silyl ethers and other silyl-protected functional groups. HMDSO can be converted back to the chloride by reaction with Me 2 SiCl 2. [3] Hexamethyldisiloxane is mainly used as source of the trimethylsilyl functional group (-Si(CH 3) 3) in organic synthesis.

  9. Aluminium silicate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_silicate

    Aluminium silicate is a type of fibrous material made of aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, (such materials are also called aluminosilicate fibres). These are glassy solid solutions rather than chemical compounds. The compositions are often described in terms of % weight of alumina, Al 2 O 3 and silica, SiO 2. Temperature resistance increases ...
