Title: Solventless sol-gel chemistry through ring-opening polymerization of bridged disilaoxacyclopentanes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:753451

Disilaoxacyclopentanes have proven to be excellent precursors to sol-gel type materials. These materials have shown promise as precursors for encapsulation and microelectronics applications. The polymers are highly crosslinked and are structurally similar to traditional sol-gels, but unlike typical sol-gels they are prepared without the use of solvents and water, they have low VOC's and show little shrinkage during processing.
