Abstract:
1. A process for producing silicon-containing particles comprising: (i) preparing a uniform phase containing a curable silicon-containing compound or a curable composition containing the silicon-containing compound, an organic polymer that (a) is free of silicon and (b) does not participate in a curing reaction of the silicon-containing compound, and an organic solvent wherein the silicon-containing compound or composition is provided as a uniform solution with the organic polymer and solvent; (ii) forming silicon-containing particles by carrying out an addition reaction, condensation reaction, ring-opening reaction, or a radical reaction of the curable silicon-containing compound or composition containing the silicon-containing compound wherein the formed silicon-containing particles phase-separate from the organic polymer.
