ABSTRACT:
Diorganopolysiloxane copolymers having a viscosity from 50 to 200,000,000 centipoise at 25.degree. C., are produced by reacting a mixture of (i) a cyclic tetrasiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded organo substituent of three to eight carbon atoms, with (ii) a cyclic siloxane having 3 to 6 siloxane units, (i) being present in an amount of 30 to 98 mol % of the mixture of (i) and (ii), at a temperature in the range of 0.degree. to 90.degree. C. and in the presence of 5 to 300 parts per million of a catalyst comprising cesium hydroxide, a silanolate thereof, or a compound of the formula, ##STR1## wherein R.sup.3 is alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 4 to 8 carbon atoms or phenyl, B is nitrogen or phosphorous, R.sup.4 is alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 4 to 8 carbon atoms, phenyl, a siloxane chain of unit formula R.sub.a.sup.5 SiO.sub.(4-a)/2 and mixtures thereof, wherein R.sup.5 is monovalent hydrocarbon or halogenated monovalent hydrocarbon, and a is from 1.5 to 2.5. Especially useful products of the process are copolymers having (i) siloxane chain units of the formula (i) R R.sup.1 SiO and (ii) R.sub.2.sup.2 SiO, (i) being present in an amount of 30 to 85 mol % of the copolymer units, and wherein R.sup.1 is alkyl, halogenated alkyl or cycloalkyl, and preferably, perfluoroalkyl, R is the same as R.sup.1 and, in addition, methyl, ethyl, vinyl or phenyl; and R.sup.2 is, independently, methyl, ethyl, vinyl or phenyl.
