Abstract:
A homopolymer consisting essentially of a monomer (3.ltoreq.C.ltoreq.10), wherein a terminus of said polymer is a silyl group of the formula R(SiR.sup.2 R.sup.3 R.sup.4).sub.n, wherein R is H, a hydrocarbon, or a polymeric substituent, each having a valence equal to n and at least one of R.sup.2, R.sup.3, and R.sup.4 is H, and the other of R.sup.2, R.sup.3, and R.sup.4 is a monovalent group independently selected from the group consisting of:hydrogen,hydroxyl radicals,alkyl radicals, aryl radicals, alkylaryl radicals, arylalkyl radicals, alkoxy radicals (1.ltoreq.C.ltoreq.20);phenoxy radical,fluorinated alkyl radicals (3.ltoreq.C.ltoreq.6),dialkylamino group in which the alkyl groups contain 1 to 4 carbon atoms,a polymeric substituent,a diorganopolysiloxane chain containing 1 to 10 siloxane units and n=1-6 and when R is H, n is 1.
