Silicon-Containing Particle, Process For Producing The Same, Organic-Polymer Composition, Ceramic, And Process For Producing The Same

Abstract

A process for producing silicon-containing particles having an extremely small particle diameter by a simple process without using surface-active agents or the like. The process is characterized by forming silicon-containing particles as a result of phase separation from an organic polymer, wherein the phase separation is achieved by an addition reaction, condensation reaction, ring-opening reaction, or a radical reaction of a curable silicon-containing compound or a curable composition that contains said compound, and the silicon-containing compound or the composition is maintained in a uniform liquid, fused, or dissolved phase with the organic polymer that is free of silicon and does not participate in the curing reaction of the silicon-containing compound or the composition.
