A group of scientists led by Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore has developed a process to recycle silicon from end-of-life PV panels that reportedly offers a recovery rate of up ...

The research team plans to extend the strategy to generate chiral silicon reagents, and to apply this method to materials/polymers containing Si-H bonds for post-functionalisation purposes.

and Denmark and DeShong have advanced different silicon reagents for coupling. ON THE OTHER HAND, Denmark has raised the profile of organosilanols, which are the silicon equivalents of alcohols.

You may have seen this demonstrated in high school chemistry; a preparation of Tollen’s reagent, a mix of sodium hydroxide, ammonia, and silver nitrate, is mixed with glucose in a glass vessel.

The vertical walls of the silicon substrate weren’t affected. Then the team sequentially used a methylcyclopentadienyl platinum compound and air (oxygen) as ALD reagents to grow platinum films.

In a highly pressurized titanium chamber, a mixture of octanol and hexane is heated to 500 degrees and a pure silicon reagent is added, which degrades to silicon atoms. The octanol chains act as a ...
