The term siloxane can lead to confusion since, strictly speaking, it refers to the Si-O-Si linkage, which is characteristic of all silicone products. However, in the construction industry, ... the term "siloxane" is used to denote alkylalkoxysilane. The expression arose because between three and six monomeric T unit alkylalkoxysilane molecules undergo a condensation reaction involving the formation of siloxane bonds to produce oligomeric alkylalkoxysiloxane molecules (ie, with few units). 2, record 1, English, - oligomeric%20alkylalkoxysiloxane
