Due to the vigorous development of the chemistry of organosilicon heterocompounds in recent years, many new uses for this type of monomeric and polymeric compound have been found. This first of a three volume set is devoted to the chemistry of heterosiloxanes, and provides a critical examination of the vast amount of data concerning these compounds that has accumulated in the literature over the last 20 years. Volume one covers heterosiloxanes, silicon compounds containing the Si-O-M group where M is a non- biogenic element (metal, B, Ge, As, Se, Te and Hal). It considers their preparation methods, structure, physical and chemical properties, biological activity, methods of analysis and practical applications.
