Abstract

Abstract Organo-silica polymers having the formula: ##EQU1## WHEREIN M AND N ARE INTEGERS INDEPENDENTLY REPRESENTING THE NUMBER OF UNITS; R represents --H, --CN, --CONH 2 , --CONH 3 + , --COOH, --COO - , --COOM, or --COOR"; R' represents --NH--, --NH 2 -- + , --NR"--, --NR"H-- + , or --CH 2 --CHR--; --CH 2 --CHR--; and whenever R' contains nitrogen, R is hydrogen; R" represents an alkyl or aryl radical; M represents an alkali metal; X represents an --OH, --O - , or --OM; are suitable as sequestering, dispersing, and flocculating agents.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 144 words
A method of preparing organo-silica polymers having the formula: ##EQU5## wherein m and n are integers independently representing the number of units; R represents --H, --CN, --CONH 2 , --CONH 3 + , --COOH, --COO - , --COOM, or --COOR"; R' represents --NH, --NR", or -NR"H-- +; and whenever R' contains nitrogen, R is hydrogen; R" represents an alkyl or aryl radical; M represents an alkali metal; X represents an --OH, --O - , or --OM; which comprises reacting a polymeric silica compound selected from alkali-metal silicates or colloidal silica containing at least one of the bonds Si--OH or Si--O with an organic compound selected from the group consisting or organic comonomers and organic prepolymers characterized in that said organic compound contains an aziridine ring or a halogen and also contains an activating group selected from the group consisting of carboxyl, nitrile, and amide.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 144 words
A method of preparing organo-silica polymers having the formula: ##EQU5## wherein m and n are integers independently representing the number of units; R represents --H, --CN, --CONH 2 , --CONH 3 + , --COOH, --COO - , --COOM, or --COOR"; R' represents --NH, --NR", or -NR"H-- +; and whenever R' contains nitrogen, R is hydrogen; R" represents an alkyl or aryl radical; M represents an alkali metal; X represents an --OH, --O - , or --OM; which comprises reacting a polymeric silica compound selected from alkali-metal silicates or colloidal silica containing at least one of the bonds Si--OH or Si--O with an organic compound selected from the group consisting or organic comonomers and organic prepolymers characterized in that said organic compound contains an aziridine ring or a halogen and also contains an activating group selected from the group consisting of carboxyl, nitrile, and amide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 36 words
The method of claim 1 wherein the organo-silica polymer is prepared by reacting a polymeric silica with an organic monomer or an organic prepolymer characterized in that said momomer or said prepolymer contains an aziridine ring.
