Ecological data

General remarks

Water hazard level 1 (German regulations) (self-assessment via list) This substance is slightly hazardous to water.

Do not allow undiluted or large quantities of product to come into contact with groundwater, waterways or sewage systems.

Do not discharge materials into the surrounding environment without government permission.

Hazardous to organic matter in water

�Excessive discharge into rivers and sewers can cause an increase in ph value. Excessively high ph value is harmful to organic matter in the water.

Concentration dilution during use can greatly reduce the ph value, thereby reducing Hazards to water caused by product discharge

Purpose

In terms of silicone, it can be used as catalysts for dimethyl silicone oil, benzyl silicone oil, silicone diffusion pump oil, solvent-free silicone molding compound, silicone resin, silicone rubber, etc. In terms of analysis, it is used as a polarographic reagent and in product purification as an ashless alkali to precipitate many metal elements. In the production of organic silicon wafers, it is often used as a brightener, cleaning agent and contact agent for computer silicon wafer surfaces. This product is a catalyst in organosilicon polymerization. Its advantages are: it is strongly alkaline and stable at temperatures that do not exceed the decomposition point. When it exceeds the decomposition point, it quickly decomposes into trimethylamine and methanol. When the catalysis is completed, it is easy to remove without leaving any residue. No pollution to silicone products. Therefore, it is also called a “temporary catalyst”. It can be used in polarographic tests and to precipitate hydrides of many elements that do not contain ash.
