High purity silicone precursors can now be synthesized by hydrosilylation of solvent-free olefins catalyzed by a highly stable and active glass hybrid catalyst consisting of mesoporous organosilica microspheres doped with Pt nanoparticles. These findings open the door to the sustainable manufacture of silicone and a way to further reduce the amount of platinum in silicones, which are ubiquitous advanced polymers with multiple uses and applications.

Abstract

High purity silicone precursors can now be synthesized by hydrosilylation of solvent-free olefins catalyzed by a highly stable and active glass hybrid catalyst consisting of mesoporous organosilica microspheres doped with Pt nanoparticles. These findings open the door to the sustainable manufacture of silicone and a way to further reduce the amount of platinum in silicones, which are ubiquitous advanced polymers with multiple uses and applications.
