Abstract

The purpose of this study was to use biomass silicon resources in rice straw to synthesize high value-added organosilicon products to solve the problem of low utilization of rice straw and high pollution and energy consumption in the silicon chemical industry. In this work, spirocyclic alkoxysilane was successfully synthesized by an environmentally friendly method from rice straw ash for the first time. The spirocyclic alkoxysilane yield per gram of rice straw ash can reach up to 1.9 g. Spirocyclic alkoxysilane was used to modify silicone resin coating. This coating can withstand 150 applications of friction and still maintain good hydrophobic effect. The maximum water contact angle after friction can reach 104°. This study broadens the application of rice straw. Furthermore, this research lays the foundation for the improvement of energy-saving and emission reduction process of silicon chemical industry.
