Process for making siloxane oligomer

摘要

A process for making a Si-H functional siloxane oligomer from the reaction between silicon hydride compositions and cyclic siloxane oligomer in the presence of a Lewis acid is provided. The Lewis acid is operable to interact with the hydrogen of the silicon hydride to promote ring opening of the cyclic siloxane oligomer and the insertion a siloxane oligomer segment between Si and H atom to thereby form the Si-H functional siloxane oligomer.
