Silicon monoxide CAS#10097-28-6

With the progress of science and technology and the development of society, chemical products have invariably permeated our daily lives, in medicine, food, cosmetics, electronics, industry, and other areas, becoming an essential part of our lives. One such product is Silicon monoxide which has developed particularly rapidly in recent years. Do you know about Silicon monoxide ?

The official answer:

• Silicon monoxide is an inorganic compound, the chemical formula is SiO, at room temperature and pressure is black brown to loess color amorphous powder, melting point 1702 °C, boiling point 1880 °C, density of 2.13g / cm³, insoluble in water, soluble in dilute hydrofluoric acid and nitric acid mixed acid and release silicon tetrafluoride, when heated in the air to form a white silica powder.
• Silica is less stable and will oxidize into silica in air.
• When silica vapor is condensed, it is disproportionated (see disproportionation reaction) to form silicon and silica.
  

• Because of its high activity, silicon monoxide micro powder can be used as a raw material for fine ceramic synthesis, such as silicon nitride and silicon carbide fine ceramic powder raw material. Used in the preparation of optical glass and semiconductor materials.
• It is evaporated in a vacuum and applied to the metal reflective mirror surface of the optical instrument as a protective film. Preparation of semiconductor materials.
