Product Information
Tetravinyl Tetramethylcyclotetrasiloxane is a cyclic vinyl siloxane containing multiple reactive vinyl groups. It is commonly used as an important organosilicon intermediate for the preparation of vinyl silicone materials, addition-cure silicone systems and specialty silicone polymers. Its multi-vinyl structure makes it suitable for formulations that require controlled crosslinking, modification or functionalization.
Typical Applications
- Raw material for vinyl silicone rubber, vinyl silicone resin and specialty silicone elastomers.
- Crosslinking or modifying component in platinum-catalyzed addition-cure silicone systems.
- Intermediate for organosilicon synthesis, coatings, encapsulants and advanced silicone materials.
- Suitable for R&D and customized silicone formulation development.
