Abstract: The present invention refers to silica particles functionalized with one or more silanes comprising a terminal group enabling a condensation reaction with the silica particles' surface, and at least one further terminal group for the modification of the silica particles' properties. The invention also relates to a process for the functionalization of silica particles by silanes, silanes as applied for the functionalization of the silica particles according to the invention, a process for the functionalization of silica by silanes, silica particles comprising a functional group, the use of the silica particles according to the invention, and coating compositions comprising the silica particles according to the invention.

Abstract: A coating composition is provided herein, wherein the coating composition includes an organic binder and a polyorganosiloxane, optionally with a hardener. There is also provided a process for making the same coating composition.

Abstract: An asymmetrically substituted polyorganosiloxane comprising at least one or more siloxane blocks and different reactive groups at each end of the siloxane chain, e.g. an alkoxysilyl, alkenyl, epoxy, hydroxyaromatic or an ionic substituent. Each polyorganosiloxane block has substantially a monomodal chain length distribution and is suitable for the use as a surface modifying agent for organic or inorganic particles, as a surface active material, and/or as a compatibilizer in compositions having more two or more non-miscible phases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated process for the manufacture of methylchlorohydridomonosilanes in particular, from products of the Müller-Rochow Direct Process.
