Abstract

Abstract Water-soluble organic silicon compounds are prepared by effecting co-hydrolysis of (A) 1-30 parts of an alkyltrialkoxysilane of R1Si(OR2)3 or a partial hydrolyzate thereof, (B) 70-90 parts of an alkoxy-containing siloxane of R3a(OR2)bSiO(4-a-b)/2, and (C) 1-20 parts of an amino-containing alkoxysilane of R4R5NR6-SiR7n(OR2)3-n or a partial hydrolyzate thereof in the presence of an organic or inorganic acid. R1 is a C7-C18 alkyl group, R2 is a C1-C4 alkyl group, R3 is a C1-C6 alkyl group, R4 and R5 are a hydrogen atom, C1-C15 alkyl or aminoalkyl group, R6 is a divalent C1-C18 hydrocarbon group, and R7 is a C1-C4 alkyl group. Letters a and b are 0.75</=a</=1.5, 0.2</=b</=2, and 0.95<a+b<3.4. These water-soluble organic silicon compounds are fully water soluble and shelf stable and can be used as an agent for preventing porous materials from water absorption simply after dilution with water. Porous materials are coated or impregnated with the compounds so that they are given excellent water repellency and water absorption-preventing effect.
