Abstract

The structure and thermooxidative stability of highly crosslinked polymethylsilsesquioxanes in the temperature range 400–700°C were compared. Using nonlinear multifactor regression analysis, the statistically effective equations were obtained allowing the comparative estimation of the structure of basic fragments of polymethylsilsesquioxanes, the determination of the composition of solid products of thermooxidation of these polymers, and prediction of their thermooxidative stability. It was found that stability characteristics, such as the degree of degradation by carbon, mass loss, and the amount of OH groups in the products of thermooxidation of polymethylsilsesquioxanes, are determined by the interchain distances and the entropy of the polymer network structure. It was shown that the oxidation stability of methyl substituents and the degree of conversion of OH groups upon thermooxidative transformations of polymethylsilsesquioxanes correlate with the position and intensity of the bands of bending vibrations of CH3 groups and asymmetric stretching vibrations of the siloxane bond.
