| Abstract: | The trimethylsilylation of sodium silicate in solution was carried out using magnetic and ultrasonic mixing. The maximum yield of trimethylsilylated product was obtained by magnetic stirring. The product having the higher molecular weight was formed using ultrasonic as well as magnetic mixing. The product was a white amorphous solid, soluble in most organic solvents. |
