rcady been discussed in a previous report (see 00 ,;-30827), where the increaseu
ecphasis placed by USSR i.nvescigators on the synthesis and applicatiors of sili-
c0hydrocarbon:: was noted. The advantal;es of siliccitydrocarbons as c?o:npare3 with

Foreign and UdSR work on Che subject, exL'ensive research is being done at present.
on tua synthesis of orgarrosilicon polytrers in which the siloxane groups have been
replaced partially or completely with dicilanemethylere groups. The purpose of
tni^, research iz; to elir?inatc the i'ollo~~in;; unsatisfactory characteristics o:'
polysiloxanes: the irsdecu~te oiliness of siloxane liquid::, the uusatisf'actory
adhesion of siloxane coati.nga to t;_tals, the inadequate mechanical strength of
silicone ruouers, and the tendency oP ~iloxsne oouds to undergo rearratzge:nerts
