Abstract: Disclosed herein is the use of manganese, iron, cobalt, or nickel complexes containing tridentate pyridine di-imine ligands as hydrosilylation catalysts. These complexes are effective for efficiently catalyzing hydrosilylation reactions, as well as offering improved selectivity and yield over existing catalyst systems.

Abstract: A process for producing a silylated product comprises reacting a mixture comprising (a) an unsaturated compound containing at least one unsaturated functional group, (b) a silyl hydride containing at least one silylhydride functional group, and (c) a catalyst, optionally in the presence of a solvent, to produce a dehydrogenative silylated product, a hydrosilylated product, or a combination of a dehydrogenative silylated product and a hydrosilylated product, wherein the catalyst is chosen from a pyridine diimine cobalt dicarboxylate complex or a cobalt carboxylate compound, and the process is conducted without pre-activating the catalyst via a reducing agent and/or without an initiator or promoter compound. The present catalysts have been found to be active in the presence of the silyl hydride employed in the silylation reaction.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a film or membrane includes: (a) dissolving at least one polymer comprising a poly(aryl ketone) in at least one solvent to form a dope; (b) depositing the dope on a substrate to form a coated substrate at appropriate conditions; and (c) drying the coated substrate to form the film or membrane. The dope may also include additional polymers or fillers, such as carbon nanotubes.

Abstract: A process for cross-linking siloxane and organic polymers comprising reacting (a) a silyl hydride with (b) an unsaturated polymeric compound in the presence of (d) a platinum diene compound with a chelating dianionic ligand.
