Measurement of low-molecular cyclic siloxane, which is found in many silicone resins and adhesives and has a major impact on electronic equipment
QTGA properties of low-molecular cyclic siloxane by TQCM mounted compact vacuum-chamber system
Comparing to small cyclic siloxane D4 (4-body) to D8 (8-body), cyclic siloxane with a larger molecular weight desorbes at a higher temperature.
The siloxane type can be identified from the desorption temperature, and the content can be evaluated from the release rate.
