Description

1,1,3,3,5,5-Hexamethyltrisiloxane is involved in the preparation of 2-bis(3-allyl-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane, which is associated with inorganic siloxane polymer and used as a coating material for the detection of toxic chemical warfare agents. It is also used as a silylating agent and to prepare 1,5-Bis[2-(1,2-epoxycyclohex-4-yl)ethyl]-1,1,3,3,5,5-hexamethyltrisiloxane from 4-vinyl-1-cyclohexene-1,2-epoxide by hydrosilylation.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
