Catalyzed Direct Reactions of Silicon

There has been a scarcity of authoritative, published information on the direct reactions of silicon. Nevertheless, the need for up-to-date information on the reactions and their silane products persists across a broad range of scientists. Recent progress warrants documentation of the state-of-the-art, and identification of the areas for future research. Some of the highlights of the book are: An authoritative presentation of the state of commercial practice on the direct synthesis of chlorosilanes and methylchlorosilanes in more depth and breadth than can be found elsewhere in a single volume; the use of in-line FTIR for real time analysis of methylchlorosilane vapors exiting the direct reaction shortens the analysis time from 30 minutes to 20 seconds and provides information comparable to gas chromatography; the first comprehensive publication on the direct synthesis of tri(dimethylamino)silane; chemical engineering modelling of the direct synthesis of chlorosilanes and methylchlorosilanes.
