Silicone – eine vollsynthetische Materialklasse macht Geschichte(n)

Abstract: Ob Nahrung, Kleidung oder Schminke, wir wissen in der Regel kaum Bescheid, aus welchen Stoffen und Materialien unsere "materiellen Alltäglichkeiten" bestehen, noch woher sie kommen und wohin sie gehen. Finden sich jedoch Nitrosamine im Bier, Chromate an den Schuhen oder Tributylzinnhaltiges auf dem T-Shirt, dann kennt die Aufregung kaum Grenzen, für einige Tage… Unsere wirklichen Kenntnisse über die Tag für Tag benutzten Ressourcen und Materialien sind marginal. Nachhaltige Entwicklung, verstanden als ein zuk… Show more

“…Industry-independent reviews of function, fate, and effects of organosiloxanes are also available. , Because of increasing production and widespread use, in the last 15 years or so much work was done on low-molecular weight organosiloxanes, notably on physical properties, analytical methods, occurrence in the environment, and their biological effects. Efforts were concentrated on cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes D 4 –D 6 , and consequently a review appeared recently on the environmental aspects of these three particular compounds .…”

“…The combination of organic and inorganic chemistry in one polymer gives rise to excellent material properties such as high thermal and oxidative stability, low toxicity, and good gas permeability. PDMS is physiologically inert and has excellent isolating and low adhesion properties. Since 1940, its further development led to utilization in resins, silicon oils, coatings, gums for advanced applications such as outdoor insulations, medical equipment, surgical replacements, and the printing industry. ,,− The hydrophobicity of PDMS provides a high surface resistivity and water repellence even in the presence of moisture and contaminants. The initially hydrophobic surface becomes progressively hydrophilic when treated with plasmas and cold plasmas, irradiated with a low-pressure mercury-quartz lamp (185−254 nm) or exposed to electric discharges or vacuum UV light emitted by an Xe 2 *-excimer lamp. The hydrophilicity can be ascribed to the generation of hydroxyl groups, i.e., silanol groups, on the polymer surface.…”

“…Again, the necessary input parameters for these compounds are not available. On the basis of environmental monitoring and general ecotoxicological considerations, a possible role of silicon compounds as a general new class of "environmental chemicals" has been postulated (18). It is then interesting to test the precautionary filter procedure on some of these compounds, such as hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDS), octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (OMCTS or D4), and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (DMCPS or D5), which are man-made special representatives of the silicones, commonly referred to as polymethylsiloxanes.…”
