Abstract

Abstract In the present invention, finely divided silica is treated with two types of organosilicon compounds, (i) organosilicon compound having the general formula wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; n is an integer having a value of 0 to 10; and Q is an alkoxy group, halogen atom, or hydroxyl group, and (ii) organosilicon compound having the general formula (R₃Si) a -Z wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; a is 1 or 2; when a equals 1, Z is a hydrogen atom, halogen atom. hydroxyl group, alkoxy group, -NR¹₂, -ONR¹₂, or -OCOR¹; when a equals 2, Z is -O- or -NR¹-; and R¹ is the hydrogen atom or an alkyl group. The present invention characteristically affords a finely divided silica which has a high degree of surface treatment, which provides an elevated thixotropy when mixed with organo­polysiloxane, and which provides stability in long-term storage.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A method for modifying the surface of finely divided silica, which method is characterized in that a finely divided silica having a specific surface area of at least 50 m²/g is treated with both (i) organosilicon compound having the general formula wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; n is an integer having a value of 0 to 10; and Q is an alkoxy group, halogen atom, or hydroxyl group, and (ii) organosilicon compound having the general formula (R₃Si) a -Z wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; a is 1 or 2; when a equals 1, Z is a hydrogen atom, halogen atom, hydroxyl group, alkoxy group, -NR¹₂, -ONR¹₂, or -OCOR¹; when a equals 2, Z is -O- or -NR¹-; and R¹ is the hydrogen atom or an alkyl group.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 131 words
A method for modifying the surface of finely divided silica, which method is characterized in that a finely divided silica having a specific surface area of at least 50 m²/g is treated with both (i) organosilicon compound having the general formula wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; n is an integer having a value of 0 to 10; and Q is an alkoxy group, halogen atom, or hydroxyl group, and (ii) organosilicon compound having the general formula (R₃Si) a -Z wherein R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group; a is 1 or 2; when a equals 1, Z is a hydrogen atom, halogen atom, hydroxyl group, alkoxy group, -NR¹₂, -ONR¹₂, or -OCOR¹; when a equals 2, Z is -O- or -NR¹-; and R¹ is the hydrogen atom or an alkyl group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 1 in which the finely divided silica has a water content of from 0.2 to 7 weight percent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
The method of claim 2 in which the ratio of component (I) to component (ii) is from 1:9 to 9:1.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
The method of claim 3 in which the total amount of component (i) and (ii) is from 1 to 80 weight parts per 100 weight parts of the finely divided silica.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 1 in which the treated finely divided silica is further heated at 80°C to 350°C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 19 words
The method of claim 4 in which the treated finely divided silica is further heated at 80°C to 350°C.
