This review considers the key advantages of using supercritical carbon dioxide as a solvent for systems with organosilicon compounds. Organosilicon polymeric materials synthesis as well as the creation and modification of composites based on them are discussed. Polydimethylsiloxane and analogues used as polymerization stabilizers and nucleation promoters in pore formation processes are analyzed as well.
Keywords: CO2; polydimethylsiloxane; silicone rubbers; supercritical fluid.
