Abstract
Abstract A process for preparing an epoxy-modified silicone resin which comprises reacting (A) an organosilicon compound containing substantially no hydroxyl groups directly bonded to the silicon atom and having the mean formula R1aSi(OR2)bO(4-a-b)/2 in which each of R1 and R2 individually represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, and a and b are in the ranges of 0</=a<3, 0.001</=b</=4, and a+b</=4, with (B) an epoxy compound containing at least one epoxy group and at least one hydroxyl group per molecule, in the presence of (C) a chelate compound selected from the group consisting of aluminum chelates and zirconium chelates.
