Abstract: A silicone emulsion contains cross-linked silicone particles in silicone oil drops dispersed in water. A method for the preparation of the emulsion, and a method for the preparation of a silicone composition with cross-linked silicone particles uniformly dispersed in a silicone oil, is also provided.
Abstract: Substrates are rendered water repellent by applying to the substrate a hyperbranched polymer containing a silicon atom made by polymerizing a derivatized aminofunctional organosilicon monomer which is the reaction product of an amine functional silane monomer precursor or an amine functional polysiloxane monomer precursor and a derivative of carbonic acid or a cyclic lactone.
