Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. What is the percentage of Hydrogen in Poly(methylhydrosiloxane). Linear Formula: (CH3)3SiO[(CH3)HSiO]nSi(CH3)3 CAS Number: 63148-57-2 MDL number: MFCD00084478 UNSPSC Code: 12162002 PubChem Substance ID: 24887755 NACRES: NA.23

    1 answer
    1. The polymer is long enough (average Mn of 1,700-3,200) that the percent of hydrogen can be estimated just using the [–Si(CH3​)(H)O–] unit, and that estimated percentage would be 6.71% (4.032/60.127).

      Helpful?

  2. Is additional curing (cross-linking) chemical needed for product 81330, Poly(methylhydrosiloxane)?

    1 answer
    1. product 81330 does not cross-link on its own at temperatures below 200°C. It requires a curing agent, with the most common options being basic materials such as amines, metal oxides, and metal hydroxides. However, caution is advised during the cross-linking process, as too rapid a cross-link can lead to rapid hydrogen gas evolution, which is highly flammable. This risk can be mitigated by using a lower dosing of the base or a weaker basic material.
