A compound gas consisting of hydrogen and silicon. An intermediate stage in the production of polysilicon.
chemical formula SiH4, silane is a pyrophoric, toxic gas with a TLV of 5ppm, and is combustible in the range of ~1-96%. Silane is widely used to deposit silicon containing films in a variety of CVD reactions.
A highly reactive molecule having a Silicon atom as the central unit. Typically functionalized and used as crosslinkers and adhesion promoters.
A silicone-like substance that is added to sealants to improve their adhesion to glass and metal surfaces under wet conditions.
A gas that readily decomposes into silicon and hydrogen, silane is often used to deposit silicon-containing compounds. It also reacts with ammonia to form silicon nitride, or with oxygen to form silicon dioxide.
Highly reactive molecule with a central silicium atom. Used as coupling agent, crosslinking agent, adhesion promoter in many applications.
Silane is a chemical compound with chemical formula SiH4. It is the silicon analogue of methane. At room temperature, silane is a gas, and is pyrophoric — it undergoes spontaneous combustion in air, without the need for external ignition.
