A polymerisation process comprising mixing siloxanes having silicon-bonded groups R' with ionic phosphazene base catalysts and allowing condensation via reaction of Si-R' groups with the formation of a Si-O-Si linkage, R' denoting a hydroxyl group or a hydrocarbonoxy group having up to 8 carbon atoms is claimed. The catalysts may be of the general formulae:((R1 2N)3P=N-)x(R1 2N)3-xP-N(H)R2}+A-} or((R1 2N)3P=N-)y(R1 2N)4-yP}+A}- in which R1 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group or in which two R1 groups bonded to the same N atom may be linked to complete a heterocyclic ring, R2 is hydrogen or an optionally substituted hydrocarbon group, x is 1, 2 or 3, y is 1, 2, 3 or 4 and A is an anion. Also claimed is a process which comprises mixing siloxanes having silicon-bonded groups R' and cyclic or linear siloxanes having no silicon-bonded groups R' with ionic phosphazene base catalysts and allowing the siloxane having silicon-bonded groups R' to condense and the cyclic and linear siloxanes having no silicon-bonded R' groups to polymerise by equilibration.
一种聚合工艺包括将具有硅键基团 R'的硅氧烷与离子膦基催化剂混合,并通过 Si-R' 基团的反应形成 Si-O-Si 连接进行缩合,R'表示羟基或具有最多 8 个碳原子的烃氧基。催化剂可以是通式为((R1 2N)3P=N-)x(R1 2N)3-xP-N(H)R2}+A-}或((R1 2N)3P=N-)y(R1 2N)4-yP}+A}- 其中 R1 是氢或任选取代的烃基,或其中与同一 N 原子键合的两个 R1 基团可连接成一个杂环、R2是氢或任选取代的烃基,x是1、2或3,y是1、2、3或4,A是阴离子。还要求一种工艺,包括将具有硅键基团 R'的硅氧烷和不具有硅键基团 R'的环状或线状硅氧烷与离子膦基催化剂混合,并通过平衡使具有硅键基团 R'的硅氧烷缩合,以及使不具有硅键基团 R'的环状和线状硅氧烷聚合。
