Strontium chloride is also used as a coloring agent (red) in glass making and metallurgy. As one of the safest metals found in fireworks, strontium chloride is used...
Read MoreCarborane is a class of thermally stable compounds with the formula BnC2Hn+2. The carboranes have polyhedral molecular structures based on networks of boron and carbon atoms, in which the carbon atoms occupy adjacent positions. Currently, many thousands of carboranes have been prepared, and they have been combined with transition metals...
Read MoreA polyimide is a specific type of polymer produced from diamines and dianhydrides. Polyimides may be thermoplastic, with a high melt viscosity requiring high pressure to form molded parts. Polyimides may also be thermosetting, whereby imide oligomers are crosslinked into a threedimensional network. Leading markets segment for polyimides include molding...
