Method of forming a hydrolysis resistant aqueous emulsion

A method of forming a hydrolysis resistant aqueous emulsion comprising a hydrolyzable silicon containing compound, said method comprising the steps of:

• A. forming a seed emulsion comprising;
• (1) an emulsifier,
• (2) water, and
• (3) a first oil phase;
• and
• B. adding a second oil phase comprising a hydrolyzable silicon containing compound to the seed emulsion;
• wherein a weight ratio of the second oil phase comprising a hydrolyzable silicon containing compound to the first oil phase of the seed emulsion is from 0.5 to 50, wherein a total weight of the two oil phases in the emulsion is at least 60 weight percent and wherein a ratio of a molar concentration of water to a total molar concentration of the hydrolyzable silicon in the aqueous emulsion is less than 2.
