Application

Tetrakis(trimethylsilyloxy)silane (TTMS) is an organosilicon compound used as a precursor to prepare nanostructured organosilicon polymer films by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) at atmospheric pressure. TTMS along with cyclohexane can also be used to synthesize low dielectric constant SiCOH films by PECVD method.

Based on wastewater and raw/digested sludge samples from 29 wastewater treatment plants in 25 Chinese cities, the nationwide profiles of cis- and trans- isomers of phenylmethylsiloxanes (P3 and P4) and trifluoropropylmethylsiloxanes (D3F and D4F) were investigated. Calculated with paired influents/sludges
