Polysiloxanes containing 3-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyl groups were synthesized
by two methods, copolymerization of cyclosiloxanes by base-catalyzed equil
ibration and hydrosilylation of allyl glycidyl ether with hydrogen-containi
ng silicone oils. The effects of various factors on the reactions were inve
stigated. The structures and epoxy content of the polysiloxanes were determ
ined by IR and H-1-NMR spectra and potentiometric titration, respectively.
