Abstract

Abstract The invention provides a novel organoborosilicon polymer comprising two types of the recurring monomeric units represented by the general formulas of, one, --SiR 1 2 --CH 2 -- and, the other, --BR 2 --NR 3 --, in which R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are each a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group. Such an organoborosilicon polymer is readily prepared by the thermal decomposition polymerization reaction of an organopolysilane compound and a borazine compound at 250° to 500° C. and useful as a precursor of an inorganic ceramic material or inorganic fibers or as a binder of ceramics.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 144 words
An organoborosilicon polymer comprising a first type of the recurring monomeric units represented by the general formula --SiR 1 2 --CH 2 --, in which R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected from the class consisting of methyl, ethyl, vinyl and phenyl groups, and a second type of the recurring monomeric units represented by the general formula --BR 2 --NR 3 --, in which R 2 is a group selected from the class consisting of monovalent hydrocarbon groups, trihydrocarbylsilyl-substituted alkyl groups represented by the general formula --CH 2 )SiR 4 3 , R 4 being a monovalent hydrocarbon group and n being a positive integer, and substituted or unsubstituted amino groups represented by the general formula --NR 5 2 , R 5 being a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and R 3 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 144 words
An organoborosilicon polymer comprising a first type of the recurring monomeric units represented by the general formula --SiR 1 2 --CH 2 --, in which R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected from the class consisting of methyl, ethyl, vinyl and phenyl groups, and a second type of the recurring monomeric units represented by the general formula --BR 2 --NR 3 --, in which R 2 is a group selected from the class consisting of monovalent hydrocarbon groups, trihydrocarbylsilyl-substituted alkyl groups represented by the general formula --CH 2 )SiR 4 3 , R 4 being a monovalent hydrocarbon group and n being a positive integer, and substituted or unsubstituted amino groups represented by the general formula --NR 5 2 , R 5 being a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and R 3 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The organoborosilicon polymer as claimed in claim 1 wherein the molar ratio of the silicon atoms to the boron atoms is in the range from 2:1 to 200:1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 181 words
A method for the preparation of an organoborosilicon polymer as claimed in claim 1 which comprises reacting an organosilicon compound having, in a molecule, at least one silicon-to-silicon linkage and at least one group denoted by R 1 , in which R 1 is a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected from the class consisting of methyl, ethyl, vinyl and phenyl groups, bonded to the silicon atom and an organoboron compound composed of the units represented by the general formula --BR 2 --NR 3 --, in which R 2 is a group selected from the class consisting of monovalent hydrocarbon groups, trihydrocarbylsilyl-substituted alkyl groups represented by the general formula --CH 2 ) n SiR 4 3 , R 4 being a monovalent hydrocarbon group and n being a positive integer, and substituted or unsubstituted amino groups represented by the general formula --NR 5 2 , R 5 being a hydrogen atom or a monovalent hydrocarbon group, and R 3 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group, in an inert atmosphere at a temperature in the range from 250° to 500° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 41 words
