DIMETHYLDICHLOROSILANE is a pivotal organosilicon intermediate synthesized via direct synthesis of silicon with methyl chloride. Its molecular formula is C2H6Cl2Si (CAS No: 75-78-5), serving as the primary precursor for dimethylpolysiloxanes.
Strictly store in dry, inert atmosphere containers to prevent hydrolysis. Requires full PPE due to severe corrosivity and lachrymatory effects upon contact with moisture or skin. Not intended for clinical use.
