Answer» Solution :(i) Linear silicones: They are obtained by the hydrolysis and subsequent condensation of dialkyl or diaryl silicon chlorides. (a) Silicon RUBBERS: These silicones are bridged together by methylene or similar groups. (B) Silicon RESINS: They are obtained by blending silicones with organic resins such as acrylic ESTERS. (ii) Cyelic silicones: These are obtained by the hydrolysis of `R_(2)SiCl_(2)` (III) Cross linked silicones: They are obtained by hydrolysis of `RSiCl_(3)` |
