Abstract

Reaction of chlorosilanes with sheet silicates, such as the naturally occurring apophyllite, [Ca4Si8O2O(F, OH).8H2O] results in the formation of sheet organofunctional siloxane polymers. Similarly, reaction of chlorosilanes with the tube silicate K2CuSi4O10results in the formation of tube organofunctional siloxane polymers. Representative polymers have been characterized by XRD, KR, XPS and solid state 29Si NMR. The interlayer spacing of the sheet polymers varies with the type of the group pendent on the sheet. When the organofunctional pendent groups of the sheet polymers contain reactive sites, further reactivity can be demonstrated with heterogeneous reactions such as hydrosilation. The sheet polymers behave as very effective thickeners of siloxane fluids. Dispersions of them in siloxane fluids exhibit thixotropic properties. The organosilicon polymers have the potential to show useful chemical, thermal, rheological and mechanical properties
