Abstract
A process for separating methyltrichlorosilane from dimethyldichlorosilane in a mixture. The process comprises contacting a mixture comprising methyltrichlorosilane and dimethyldichlorosilane with activated carbon, where the methyltrichlorosilane is selectively adsorbed by the activated carbon. The process allows for the recovery of a dimethyldichlorosilane fraction reduced in methyltrichlorosilane concentration. The methyltrichlorosilane can be recovered by desorption from the activated carbon. The present process is especially useful for removing low levels of methyltrichlorosilane present as a contaminate in dimethyldichlorosilane.
