Poly (dodecacarborane-siloxanes)

Abstract
The need for elastomeric polymers which will maintain their elastic properties at high temperatures has led to a wide interest in inorganic-based polymers [l]. The development of carborane-siloxane polymers in the early 1960s was a breakthrough in the search for a high-temperature elastomer. Incorporation of a carborane moiety into the siloxane backbone significantly enhanced the overall thermal stability [2].
