Silicon Compounds Handbook from Gelest

Gelest announces the publication of Silicon Compounds: Silanes & Silicones, 5000A. This handbook introduces over 250 new compounds and nearly 50 new polymers. It includes information on silanes for coupling agent applications with new functional and non-functional dipodal structures, silanes for hydrophilic surface treatment with a greater range of PEG substitution, new silanes for cross-coupling applications in organic synthesis, silanes and silicones for “click chemistry” including new azide and acetylene functional silanes, and silicones with high refractive index (RI) and chromogenic properties.
