This invention is directed to the preparation of certain arylene bis-silanols in highly purified form and to the preparation of five new arylene bis-silanols in particular, along with a procedure for polymerizing these and other arylene-type bis-silanols using phosgene as a polymerization promotor or catalyst, to obtain highly purified, high molecular weight arylene-siloxanylene polymers having the characteristic structure: ##STR1## where Y is an arylene or substituted arylene moiety; R and R' are the same or different alkyl group(s), substituted alkyl group(s) or a phenyl group, x ranges from about 1 to 3 and n ranges from about 300 to 1500, said polymers having molecular weights (number average) of 100,000 and higher. Preferred polymers are those arylenesiloxanylenecarbonate polymers which, when laminated to polycarbonate sheets or glass maintain their transparency, stability and adherence to said substrates at temperatures of up to and including 400.degree. F. Such polymers are useful for the formulation of high temperature interlayers for windshields and canopies for aircraft and related aerospace vehicles.
