A Comparison of Five Siloxanylcarborane Polymers

Abstract

Thermal properties of five structurally different siloxanylcarborane polymersare compared. Two polymers contain B(10)- arborane groups, two B(5) groups,and one a B(8)-carborane group. Their polymer decomposition TEMPERATURES(ranging from 440 -550 C) depend on their chemical structure. Polymerscontaining the B(l0)-carborane moiety are thermally the most stable. Theyalso show a longer retention of flexibility upon exposure to 250 C. Thesepolymers show potential for high temperature rubbers.
