Structural Analysis of Water Soluble Silicon Compounds and Development of a New Water Soluble Silicon Complex Aiming at the Synthesis of High-Performance Ceramics.

Abstract

Structural analysis of glycol-modified silanes (GMS), which are a series of water-soluble silicon compounds, was performed in terms of 29Si NMR and FT-IR measurements. According to NMR spectra, as-prepared GMS consisted of TEOS, and one, two, three and four substituted GMS with deprotonated glycols. It confirmed that the formation reaction of the four glycol substituted GMS proceeded during vacuuming. At the same time, a formation of a dimer was also detected. We will also present a preparation of a new water soluble silicon complex.
