Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), also known as dimethylpolysiloxane or dimethicone, is a silicone polymer with a wide variety of uses, from cosmetics to industrial lubrication and passive daytime radiative cooling. [1] [2] [3] PDMS is particularly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties.
Polydimethylsiloxane is a prevalent siloxane. In organosilicon chemistry, a siloxane is an organic compound containing a functional group of two silicon atoms bound to an oxygen atom: Si−O−Si. The parent siloxanes include the oligomeric and polymeric hydrides with the formulae H[OSiH 2] n OH and [OSiH 2] n. [1]
TMS is a contaminant in the atmospheres of spacecraft, where it arises from the degradation of silicone-based materials. [5] Specifically, it is the volatile product from the hydrolysis of polydimethylsiloxane, which are generally terminated with trimethylsilyl groups:
The original coral-colored Silly Putty is composed of 65% dimethylsiloxane (hydroxy-terminated polymers with boric acid), 17% silica (crystalline quartz), 9% Thixatrol ST (castor oil derivative), 4% polydimethylsiloxane, 1% decamethyl cyclopentasiloxane, 1% glycerine, and 1% titanium dioxide.

Radical polymerisation of unsaturated monomers is generally propagated by C-radicals. These can be effectively terminated by combining with other radicals to form neutral species and many true inhibitors operate through this mechanism. In the simplest example oxygen can be used as it exists naturally in its triplet state (i.e. it is a diradical).
Polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) is a polymer with the general structure [−CH 3 (H)Si−O−].It is used in organic chemistry as a mild and stable reducing agent easily transferring hydrides to metal centers and a number of other reducible functional groups.
Silicone caulk can be used as a basic sealant against water and air penetration. In organosilicon and polymer chemistry, a silicone or polysiloxane is a polymer composed of repeating units of siloxane (−O−R 2 Si−O−SiR 2 −, where R = organic group).
The example below shows a test where a certain trim code is written to a register and based on the trim code the internal regulator steps in voltage which is read back (see the picture2). picture2 Additionally, UTSL allows the user to define the state of the instrument i.e. connected to the pin, or disconnected from the pin.
