Vinyl trimethoxysilane is a kind of organosilicon compound. It has a wide range of uses and has important functions in many fields. First, in the construction field, this substance is often used as a concrete sealant and waterproof agent. It can penetrate into the pores of concrete and form a waterproof and breathable protective film through chemical reaction. It can not only resist the intrusion of water, but also enhance the durability of concrete and prolong the service life of building structures. It is especially practical in buildings in humid or harsh environments. Second, in the coating industry, vinyl trimethoxysilane can be used as an adhesion promoter. Added to the coating, it can improve the adhesion between the coating and the surface of the substrate. Whether it is metal, wood or plastic, after treatment, the coating is easier to adhere, and it is not easy to peel off and peel, improve the stability and aesthetics of the coating, and greatly improve the performance of the coating. Third, in the preparation of composite materials, it plays the role of a coupling agent. It can build a bridge between inorganic materials (such as glass fibers, fillers, etc.) and organic polymers to enhance the interface bonding force between the two, thereby improving the mechanical properties, heat resistance and chemical corrosion resistance of the composite material. Taking glass fiber reinforced plastics as an example, after vinyl trimethoxysilane treatment, the combination between glass fibers and plastic substrates is more tight, and the material strength is significantly enhanced. Fourth, in the field of electronics industry, the substance is also used. For example, in semiconductor packaging materials, it can improve the bonding force between packaging materials and chips and substrates, ensure the stability and reliability of electronic devices, and is of great significance to the long-term stable operation of electronic products. In summary, vinyl trimethoxysilane, with its unique chemical properties, plays a key role in many fields such as construction, coatings, composites and electronics, and has made great contributions to the development of various industries.

Vinyl trimethoxysilane is also a genus of organosilicon compounds. It has several chemical properties and is particularly important. First, hydrolysis is obvious. When exposed to water, the methoxy group ($OCH_3 $) can be hydrolyzed, and the raw silanol group ($Si - OH $). In this process, the hydrogen of the water molecule is connected to the oxygen of the methoxy group, and the rest forms a silanol structure. The reaction formula for hydrolysis is roughly: $CH_2 = CHSi (OCH_3) _3 + 3H_2O\ longrightarrow CH_2 = CHSi (OH) _3 + 3CH_3OH $. The silanol group has high activity and can be further condensed to form a siloxane bond ($Si - O - Si $). This property is often used in the preparation of coatings and adhesives to help form cross-linked structures and increase the mechanical properties and weather resistance of materials. Second, the addition reaction energy is good. Because it contains vinyl ($CH_2 = CH - $), it is unsaturated and can be added to a variety of substances containing active hydrogen or unsaturated bonds. For example, with hydrogen-containing silane, under the action of platinum-based catalysts, the vinyl double bond is opened, and the silicon-hydrogen bond is added to obtain new silicone compounds. This reaction is an important means in the synthesis of silicone, and specific functional groups can be introduced to expand the application of materials. Third, thermal stability. Within a certain temperature range, its chemical structure can remain relatively stable. However, when the temperature is too high, it may cause decomposition, polymerization and other reactions. In the modification of polymer materials, an appropriate amount of vinyl trimethoxysilane is added, which can be used to improve the thermal stability of the material, improve the thermal properties of the material, and increase the performance of the material in high temperature environments. Fourth, surface activity is also available. Because its molecules contain organic groups and siloxy groups, they can be aligned on the surface of the material to change the surface properties. Applied to the surface of inorganic materials, siloxy groups can react with surface hydroxyl groups to form chemical bonds, and the organic groups face outward to improve the surface wettability and adhesion of the material, and enhance the compatibility of inorganic materials and organic polymer materials.

Vinyl trimethoxysilane is also a chemical substance. When storing it, pay attention to everything. First of all, it should be placed in a cool and dry place. This is because if it is in a warm and humid environment, moisture can easily react with silane and cause it to deteriorate. And heat can also promote its chemical reaction speed and damage its quality. For the second time, it must be sealed and stored. Vinyl trimethoxysilane is easily changed by water vapor and oxygen in the air. Sealing can be separated from external interference and keep it stable. Also, avoid storage with oxidized substances, acids and bases. Vinyl trimethoxysilane is active in nature, and in contact with them, it is easy to cause severe chemical reactions, causing danger, such as the risk of explosion. Furthermore, the storage place should be well ventilated. If leakage occurs, ventilation can quickly disperse harmful gases and reduce harm. And the receptacle also needs to be resistant to corrosion, because it is corrosive to a certain material. Repeat, pay attention to temperature control. High or low temperature can affect its properties. Too high can cause it to decompose and polymerize; too low or cause it to condense, inconvenient to use. In summary, when storing vinyl trimethoxysilane, care must be taken in the environment, sealed, protected from any contaminants, ventilated, and temperature controlled to ensure its quality and safety.

Vinyltrimethoxysilane, as well as organosilicon compounds, is widely used in the fields of chemical industry and materials. The synthesis methods are listed in ancient books, and the common ones have the following numbers. First, vinyltrichlorosilane and methanol are used as raw materials for alcoholysis. Vinyltrichlorosilane encounters methanol, and the chlorine atom is replaced by a methoxy group. This reaction needs to be carried out at a suitable temperature and in the presence of a catalyst. The chemical equation is roughly as follows: $CH_2 = CHSiCl_3 + 3CH_3OH\ stackrel {catalyst} {\ longrightarrow} CH_2 = CHSi (OCH_3) _3 + 3HCl $. When reacting, it is necessary to pay attention to the control of temperature. If it is too high, side reactions will produce impure products; if it is too low, the reaction will be slow. And the generated hydrogen chloride gas must be properly handled to prevent its escape from causing environmental pollution and human harm. Second, it is synthesized from silicon powder, ethylene and methanol through a multi-step reaction. First, silicon powder and hydrogen chloride are reacted under specific conditions to obtain trichlorosilane, and then trichlorosilane and ethylene are added under the action of a catalyst to obtain vinyl trichlorosilane, and finally alcoholysis with methanol to obtain vinyl trimethoxysilane. Although this path is complicated, the raw materials are easy to obtain, and the cost may be advantageous. There are also those who use other silicon sources and vinylation reagents as starting materials and are prepared by various organic synthesis methods. However, the process may be more complicated and the requirements for reaction conditions are also high, and the practical application is not as common as the former two. The key to synthesis is to choose the appropriate reaction conditions and catalysts to improve the reaction yield and selectivity, while taking into account environmental protection and safety, so that this synthesis process can be effectively applied to industrial production.

Vinyl trimethoxysilane is a commonly used raw material in the chemical industry. Its impact on the environment cannot be ignored. If this substance escapes in the atmosphere, it is volatile or participates in photochemical reactions. It interacts with other components in the atmosphere, or causes the formation of pollutants such as ozone, which affects air quality and is unfavorable to human respiratory health. And this substance may migrate with atmospheric circulation, expanding its scope of influence. If it enters the water, vinyl trimethoxysilane may be toxic to aquatic organisms. Or destroy the cell membranes of aquatic organisms, interfere with their physiological metabolism, and cause biological growth and reproduction to be blocked. What's more, it can cause the extinction of some sensitive species and destroy the balance of aquatic ecosystems. In the soil environment, it may be adsorbed on the surface of soil particles, affecting the physical and chemical properties of the soil. It hinders the transfer and exchange of nutrients in the soil, which in turn affects the absorption of nutrients by plant roots, which is not conducive to plant growth. And this substance degrades slowly in the soil, or remains for a long time, and the accumulated concentration gradually increases, causing lasting pressure on soil ecology. Vinyl trimethoxysilane has many effects on the environment. When using and disposing, it should be done with caution to prevent its escape and ensure the safety of the environment.
