Silicone yiri ka ọ bụ ihe omimi na ọkaibe nye ọtụtụ mmadụ. Dị ka onye na-eme ihe na ahụmahụ afọ itoolu na ụlọ ọrụ silicone, m ga-eme ike m iji kọwaara onye ọ bụla n'ụzọ doro anya silicone. Enwere akụrụngwa atọ kachasị mkpa maka silicone: silicon metal, methanol na hydrogen chloride.
Nke mbụ, ka methanol meghachi omume na hydrogen chloride ka ọ mepụta chloromethane (CH3Cl), wee hapụ silicon meghachi omume na chloromethane. Ngwaahịa ndị bụ isi enwetara gụnyere methyltrichlorosilane (Si CH3Cl3), dimethyldichlorosilane (Si (CH3) 2Cl2), trimethylchlorosilane (Si (CH3) 3Cl), na tetrachlorosilane (Si Cl4). Hydrolyze ndị a chlorosilane iji nweta silanol dị iche iche. Naanị dochie atọm chlorine (Cl) dị na chlorosilanes jiri otu hydroxyl (OH).
Otu hydroxyl ndị a niile na-emeghachi omume. Nmeghachi omume ha, jikọtara ya na njirimara ntụzịaka anọ{1} nke atom silicon, na-ebute ọtụtụ ụdịdị organosilicon.
