Abstract: 1. Claims (for the Contracting States : CH, DE, FR, GB, IT, LI) Silicic acid heteropolycondensates, obtainable in that a) at least one titanium or zirconium component, soluble in the reaction medium, of formula I MR4 wherein M is titanium or zirconium and R is halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyloxy or a chelate ligand, and b) at least one organofunctional silane of formula II R"m (R"'Y)n SiX(4-m-n ) wherein R" is alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl, arylalkenyl or alkenylaryl, R"' is alkylene, phenylene, alkylenephenylene or alkenylene, whereby these radicals may be interrupted by oxygen or sulphur atoms or -NH-groups, X is hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyloxy or the group -NR"2 (R' = hydrogen and/or alkyl), Y is a hydrophilic radical or a radical that is converted to a hydrophilic radical under the reaction conditions, m is an integer of 0, 1 or 2 and n is an integer of 1, 2 or 3, m + n having the value 1, 2 or 3 ; and, optionally, one or more of the following components c) and/or d) : c) organosilanes of formula III R"n SiX4-n wherein R", X and n have the above meanings, d) oxides of an element of the main groups la to Va or the subsidiary groups IVb or Vb of the periodic system, with the exception of titanium or zirconium, which oxides are substantially involatile and soluble in the reaction medium ; or compounds of one of said elements which are soluble in the reaction medium and form a substantially involatile oxide under the reaction conditions ; are pre-condensed in the absence of water, optionally in the presence of an anhydrous condensation catalyst and, optionally, in the presence of an anhydrous solvent and, subsequently, are further condensed by adding water as well as, optionally, a condensation catalyst, whereby 1 to 60 moles % of component a), 20 to 99 moles % of component b), 0 to 40 moles % of component c) and 0 to 50 moles % of component d) are employed and the total mole number of components a), b), c) and d) is 100 percent. 1. Claims (for the Contracting State AT) A process for preparing silicic acid heteropolycondensates, characterized in that a) at least one titanium or zirconium component, soluble in the reaction medium, of formula I MR4 wherein M is titanium or zirconium and R is halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyloxy or a chelate ligand, and b) at least one organofunctional silane of formula II R"m (R"'Y)n SiX(4-m-n ) wherein R" is alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, arylalkyl, alkylaryl, arylalkenyl or alkenylaryl, R"' is alkylene, phenylene, alkylenephenylene or alkenylene, whereby these radicals may be interrupted by oxygen or sulphur atoms or -NH-groups, X is hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, alkoxy, acyloxy or the group -NR'2 (R' = hydrogen and/or alkyl), Y is a hydrophilic radical or a radical that is converted to a hydrophilic radical under the reaction conditions, m is an integer of 0, 1 or 2 and n is an integer of 1, 2 or 3, m + n having the value 1, 2 or 3 ; and, optionally, one or more of the following components c) and/or d) : c) organosilanes of formula III R"n SiX4-n wherein R", X and n have the above meanings, d) oxides of an element of the main groups la to Va or the subsidiary groups IVb or Vb of the periodic system, with the exception of titanium or zirconium, which oxides are substantially involatile and soluble in the reaction medium ; or compounds of one of said elements which are soluble in the reaction medium and form a substantially involatile oxide under the reaction conditions ; are pre-condensed in the absence of water, optionally in the presence of an anhydrous condensation catalyst and, optionally, in the presence of an anhydrous solvent and, subsequently, are further condensed by adding water as well as, optionally, a condensation catalyst, whereby 1 to 60 moles % of component a), 20 to 99 moles % of component b), 0 to 40 moles % of component c) and 0 to 50 moles % of component d) are employed and the total mole number of components a), b), c) and d) is 100 percent.
