Octamethyltrisiloxane, commonly referred to as octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane, falls under the category of siloxanes. Its versatile applications include serving as a solvent, coupling agent, and surface tension modifier in various industries. Furthermore, it plays a significant role in the production of adhesives, sealants, and lubricants.
Application
Octamethyltrisiloxane is used as a solvent for good dispersion of styrene and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), which are used in the fabrication of perovskite barium titanate inverse opal films.
The paper presents the screening of 20 deep eutectic solvents (DESs) composed of tetrapropylammonium bromide (TPABr) and glycols in various molar ratios, and 6 conventional solvents as absorbents for removal of siloxanes from model biogas stream. The screening was achieved
The thermal conductance of interfaces between metals and diamond, which has a comparatively high Debye temperature, is often greater than can be accounted for by two-phonon processes. The high pressures achievable in a diamond anvil cell (DAC) can significantly extend

Most of the reported methods for the analysis of volatile methylsiloxanes focus on their environmental fate or possible health effects, aiming at trace level analysis by using direct injection gas chromatography. However, system contamination as carry over and side reactions
In many cases, cell function is intimately linked to cell shape control. We used endothelial cell branching morphogenesis as a model to understand the role of myosin II in shape control of invasive cells migrating in 3D collagen gels. We
A novel UV-light-curable nanocomposite material formed of a methacrylic-siloxane resin loaded with 1 wt % oleic acid and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate silane (OLEA/MEMO)-coated TiO2 nanorods (NRs) has been manufactured as a potential self-curing structural coating material for protection of monuments and
