POLYCARBONATE OR POLYESTER HAVING REACTIVE SILICON-CONTAINING GROUP AND ORGANIC/INORGANIC HYBRID POLYMERIC MATERIAL

摘要

The present invention provides a polycarbonate or polyester having reactive silicon-containing groups which can provide an organic-inorganic hybrid polymeric material having strong cross-linkage to inorganic components based on its many reactive silicon-containing groups. The polycarbonate or polyester has the following unit:wherein, either Q¹ or Q² is a side chain having a reactive silicon-containing group,the other of Q¹ or Q², and R¹, R² are each independently hydrogen atom, or an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aroyl group or an aralkyl group, wherein the groups may have a substituted group or atom,Q¹ and Q² may be taken together to form a ring,R¹ and R² may be taken together to form a ring, andR is a bivalent group of alkylene group, arylene group or combination thereof, which accomplishes the above objective.
