n-Octadecyltrichlorosilane is used in semiconductor industry to form self-assembled monolayer thin films on silicon dioxide substrates. Used in molecular electronics, as thin insulating gates in Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors. It is also used in platinum catalyzed synthesis.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Applications
n-Octadecyltrichlorosilane is used in semiconductor industry to form self-assembled monolayer thin films on silicon dioxide substrates. Used in molecular electronics, as thin insulating gates in Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors. It is also used in platinum catalyzed synthesis.

Solubility
Decomposes in water.

Notes
Moisture sensitive. Store in cool dry place in tightly closed container. Store under dry inert gas. Keep away from water/moisture.
