(i) Linear silicones: 

They are obtained by the hydrolysis and subsequent condensation of dialkyl or diaryl silicon chlorides. 

  • Silicone rubbers: These silicones are bridged together by methylene or similar groups.
  • Silicone resins: They are obtained by blending silicones with organic resins such as acrylic esters.

(ii) Cyclic silicones: These are obtained by the hydrolysis of R2SiCl2

(iii) Cross linked silicones: They are obtained by hydrolysis of RSiCl3
