Description

1,2-Bis(triethoxysilyl)ethane is the starting material for the synthesis of pluronic polymers. It can be produced by treating 1,2-dichloroethane with a triethoxysilane in high salt conditions. The reaction mechanism is through a free radical mechanism. The polymerization process involves two stages: 1) initiation and 2) propagation. Initiation occurs when the active species reacts with an ethylene oxide molecule to form a monomer radical which then reacts with another ethylene oxide molecule to produce a dimer radical. Propagation occurs when the dimer radical reacts with an ethylene oxide molecule to produce a trimer radical which then reacts with another ethylene oxide molecule to produce a tetramer radical. These growth steps continue until termination reactions occur.BR>
An important feature of this polymer is that it has low dielectric permittivity and high mechanical strength and thermal stability, making it suitable for use
