Siloxane-modified polyester resins and production processes thereof

摘要

Siloxane-modified polyester resins are disclosed. These resins comprise a copolymer of a siloxane compound, which contains at least one active hydrogen atom, and a lactone compound. The copolymer is substantially free of unreacted siloxane compound. The siloxane-modified polyester resins are useful for the production of heat-sensitive recording material, magnetic recording media and release agents. Processes for the production of the siloxane-modified polyester resins are also disclosed.
