The Oxford Dictionary says 'Silicon'
It's a sealant made out of silicon.
Silicone can be formulated to be electrically insulative or conductive. Silicone is used as a non-conductive insulation material in wire and cable and also as a semi-conductive insulator in co-extruded cables. Save
Silicone is considered to be a very safe polymer with virtually no toxic effects in most environments. Also, as silicone is not considered as hazardous waste it can be disposed of in accordance with the local regulations regarding waste disposal.
Silicon is a naturally-occurring substance.
No. Silicon is the element. Silicone is a product that contains the element silicon.
Examples of silicon products are: 1.silicone egg ring 2.silicone rubber keypads 3.silicone cookware 4.silicone masks 5.silicone nibbles 6.silicone roller * * * * * Note that these are products of silicone. Silicone contains silicon but is not the same. More common examples of silicon use are microprocessor chips, glass, sand paper.
Silicone materials are partly made of the element silicon, but most or all the silicon atoms in them are also bonded to oxygen atoms. Therefore, silicone materials do not have the chemical properties of pure elemental silicon.
yes
Silicon is just silicone and silicone dioxide is one part silicon to every two parts oxygen.
silicon is the name of the element. A silicone is a type of polymeric compound of silicon that contains a silicon-oxygen backbone and alkyl groups (e.g. CH3) attached to the silicon e.g. [Si(CH3)2O]n See wikipedia silicone for examples of the different uses of silicones- and the silicon article for a picture of silicon.
Silicon is Nonrenewable, we can't produce more silicon if we mine all of it (and with out silicon you can't make silicone), however silicon is the 2nd most abundant element in the earths crusts making 27.7% of it, so it can be argued that human progress will not deplete all our silicon the way we are coming close to with oil. Other facts: A. Silicone is not oil based what so ever B. Silicon is made typically with silicon and oxygen atom and an alkali, sometimes carbon
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) is a compound.
Silicon is a solid at room temperature.
Yes, people can be allergic to anything.
