It is used as a flux, an acid catalyst and a chemical intermediate in production of boron halides, esters, carbide, nitride, and metallic borides. Boron oxide has shown a promising effect on glycerol hydrogenolysis to 1,2-propanediol.

Antimony(III) chloride is engaged to detect certain compounds, such as cholesterols. It is a complexing agent used in the colorimetric Carr-Price test for detecting carotenoids including vitamin A. It is employed as a mordant and a fabric flame retardant.

Tellurium(IV) oxide is also used in devices which can convert light into sound (acousto-optic material). Glasses made of tellurium oxide have high refractive indices and transmit into mid-IR region. It is used to make glasses with special properties.

(Trimethylsilyl)acetylene is used in the preparation of trimethylsilanyl-propiolic acid ethyl ester by reacting with carbonochloridic acid ethyl ester as well as in the synthesis of iodoalkenes by radical addition of perfluoroalkyl iodides.

Used in abrasives, in polishing and grinding. It is widely applied in applications calling for high endurance, such as automobile brakes, car clutches and ceramic plates in bulletproof vests. Electronic applications of silicon carbide are as light emitting diodes and sensors.

Silicon(IV) oxide is used in the manufacture of glass for windows, drinking glasses, beverage bottles and many other materials. Optical fibers for telecommunication are made from silica. It is also used as a raw material for many ceramics such as earthenware, stoneware and porcelain.
