By depositing only microns of silicon, cost and energy can be conserved with the added benefit of allowing for mechanical flexibility. The dominant method of silicon thin-film deposition has long been PECVD, or plasma- enhanced chemical vapor deposition, originally known as the RF glow discharge process. Re- cently, Powerfilm, Inc. has been producing thin film amorphous silicon solar cells by this method on a roll-to-roll process.[3] This is made possible because PECVD does not require substrate temperatures above the glass transition temperature of polyimide polymer. NASA has worked to raise the glass transition temperature of polyimide resins to 414◦C. [4] Another material that is sensitive to deposition temperature is aluminum, which is found both in microelectronic and photovoltaic processes. In addition to maintaining the temper- ature below aluminum’s melting point, as well as the aluminum-silicon eutectic temperature of 577◦C,[5] the deposition temperature should also remain below 450◦C to limit diffusion.[6] It.

Theoretical Study of the Bis-Silylation Reaction of Ethylene Catalyzed by Titanium Dichloride Abstract Titanium dichloride was investigated as a potential catalyst for the bis-silylation reaction of ethylene with hexachlorodisilane. Ab initio electronic structure calculations at the restricted Hartree−Fock (RHF), density functional (DFT), second-order perturbation (MP2), and couple cluster (CCSD) levels of theory were used to find optimized structures, saddle points, and minimum-energy paths that connect them. The er action was found to have a net zero barrier at the DFT, MP2, and CCSD levels of theory. Dynamic correlation is found to be important for this reaction.

This document is available on the Department of Energy Technical Standards Program Web page at: http://www.hss.doe.gov/nuclearsafety/ns/techstds/ Key words: Alkali Metals , Aluminum, Arsine, Calcium, Class D Extinguishing Agents, Coal Storage, Combustible Metals, Diborane, Fire, Hafnium, Heating, Hydrazine, Hydrocarbons, Hypergolic, Hypergolic Reaction, Iron, Lithium, Magnesium, Metals, Microbial Heating, NaK, Organic, Oxidizer, Phosphine, Phosphorus, Plutonium, Potassium, Pyrophoric, Pyrophoricity, Pyrophoric Gases, Pyrophoric Reagents, Silane Specific Area, Sodium, Sodium‐Potassium, Specific Surface Area, Spontaneous, Spontaneous Combustion, Steel, Super Oxides, Thorium, Titanium, Uranium, Water Reactive Metals, Zinc, Zirconium FOREWORD The Primer on Spontaneous Heating and Pyrophoricity is approved for use by all DOE Components. It was developed to help Department of Energy (DOE) facility contractors prevent fires caused by spontaneous ignition. Spontaneously ignitable materials include those that ignite because of a slow buildup of heat (spontaneous heating) and those that ignite in air (pyrophoricity). The scientific principles of combustion and how they affect materials known to be spontaneously combustible are explained. The fire hazards of specific spontaneously heating and pyrophoric materials are discussed as well as techniques to prevent their ignition. Suitable fire extinguishing agents are included for most materials as well as safety precautions for storage and handling. The DOE Primers are fundamental handbooks on safety‐related topics of interest in the DOE Complex and are intended as an educational aid for operations and maintenance personnel and others who may have an interest in this topic.

Reactions of MeSi(pyO)3 with [PdCl2(NCMe)2] and CuCl afforded the compounds MeSi(µ-pyO)4PdCl (1) and MeSi(µ-pyO)3CuCl (2), respectively. In the latter case, some crystals of the Cu(II) compound MeSi(µ-pyO)4CuCl (3) were obtained as a byproduct. Analogous reactions of Si(pyO)4, in the presence of HpyO, with [PdCl2(NCMe)2] and CuCl2, afforded the compounds [(HpyO)Si(µ-pyO)4PdCl]Cl (4), (HpyO)2Si[(µ-pyO)2PdCl2]2 (5), and (HpyO)2Si[(µ-pyO)2CuCl2]2 (6), respectively. Compounds 1–6 and the starting silanes MeSi(pyO)3 and Si(pyO)4 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and, with exception of the paramagnetic compounds 3 and 6, with NMR spectroscopy.

In a few cases, trisilanes are accessible by the reaction of 1 with disilanes. The reaction of a metalated silane with a chlorosilane is an alternative method for the formation of SiSi bonds, which turned out to be especially useful for the synthesis of bulkily substituted disilanes.

[email protected] ABSTRACT The ideal gas thermochemical properties such as standard heat of formation, entropy and heat capacities of 112 inorganic and 35 organic neutral compounds, radicals and ions containing silicon were calculated using molecular properties obtained with the G3B3 (or G3//B3LYP) method. Among them were linear and cyclic silanes, silenes, hydrocarbonsilanes, fluorine and oxygen containing compounds. Many of their molecular and thermodynamic properties were calculated for the first time and 16 of them had no CAS No. Additionally the thermochemical properties were presented in the NASA 7-term polynomial format for the temperature range of 200 K to 6000 K commonly used in chemical kinetic modeling and simulation programs. The polynomials are available in the supplement to this article free of charge. 2 KEYWORDS Thermodynamic data, Thermochemistry, Thermochemical properties, Heat of formation, Entropy, Enthalpy, Heat capacity, NASA format, Quantum chemical calculation, G3B3 composite approach, Silicon hydride, Silanes, Silicon fluoride, Silicon hydrocarbon, Silicon ions, Silicon compounds, Database INTRODUCTION Silicon containing substances are widely used and important for the mankind.

  • Toxic and Highly Toxic Gas Handling Procedure
    Environmental Health and Safety Toxic and Highly Toxic Gas Handling Procedure Date of Issuance: 10/2019 Revision Date: 5/27/2021 Revision Number: 1 Prepared by: EHS 1. Scope and Background The Carnegie Mellon University Toxic and Highly Toxic Gas Handling Program specifies minimum requirements for safe storage, use, and handling of toxic and highly toxic gas at Carnegie Mellon University. This program has been approved by the Laboratory Safety Committee. This document: • summarizes the health and safety risks associated with toxic and highly toxic gas use and handling; • identifies exposure control methods to protect employee’s safety and health and the environment; • outlines regulatory and university requirements related to this work; • specifies emergency response procedures for addressing toxic gas issues; and • provides resources for further information. Toxic and highly toxic gases are gases that may cause significant acute health effects at low concentrations. Health effects may include severe skin or eye irritation, pulmonary edema, neurotoxicity or other potentially fatal conditions. The criteria used to establish the materials addressed by this policy are: • A National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) health rating of 3 or 4 • An NFPA health rating of 2 with poor physiological warning properties • Pyrophoric (self-igniting) characteristics, OR • An extremely low occupational exposure limits in the absence of an NFPA health rating.

SECOND PRINTING, MARCH, 1947 PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA To P. G. F. PREFACE The organic compounds of silicon, which have been the subject of many scholarly researches during the past 80 years, at last show promise of emerging from the laboratory and finding a place in industry. An understanding of the behavior of organosilicon materials is necessary to their intelligent use and, inasmuch as the chemistry of these substances ordinarily is not treated in our textbooks, it is possible that a compact yet comprehensive survey of our present knowledge in this field would be of service to chemists, engineers, and industrial designers. This volume has just such a purpose. The first few chapters review the silanes and their derivatives in some detail, in order to provide an understanding of the fundamental chemistry of the nonsilicate com- pounds of silicon. The later chapters emphasize the silicone polymers which have achieved commercial importance and deal with the methods for their preparation, their chemical and physical properties, and their possible usas.
