Abstract

Abstract Highly dispersed oxides of metals and/or silicon are hydrophobized by treatment with volatilizable organosilicon compounds in the gas phase. The oxide particles either come fresh from the production plant or are previously absolutely dried, and activated i.e., freed of physically and chemically bound water, in a fluidized bed with a dry inert gas stream at a temperature of 550* to 1000*C., preferably 600* to 950*C. under normal pressure in a few seconds to a few minutes, preferably in a time of 1 to 60 seconds. The oxide particles are reacted with a stoichiometrical mixture of at least one dialkyldichlorosilane and water in the ratio of 1:1 at a temperature of 350*C. to 650*C. in an atmosphere of CO2. There can also be used diaryldichlorosilanes.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim 10 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein X is chlorine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 50 words
A process according to claim 1 wherein the subjected particles come from stored material which has then been treated in a fluidized bed with dry inert gas steam at temperatures in the range from 550*C. to 1000*C. under normal pressure from a time of 1 second to a few minutes.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
