What is Ethyl silicate CAS 11099-06-2?
Ethyl silicate, also known as tetraethyl orthosilicate, tetraethyl silicate, or tetraethoxysilane, has a molecular formula of Si (OC2H5) 4. It is a colorless and transparent liquid with a special odor. Stable in the absence of water, it decomposes into ethanol and silicic acid when in contact with water. It becomes turbid in humid air and becomes clear again after standing, resulting in the precipitation of silicic acid. It is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers.
