Effect of pumpdown time. In principal there will be some small molecules of water, methanol and other volatile fractions produced to impacting performance of PDMS. So it must be vacuum-pumping to improve the purity. As seen in Fig.7, around the pumpdown time from 0 to 150min there was a sharp increment in the viscosity with other factors settled. As it got up to 40min, the extraneous components had been already removed completely. So the best pumpdown time was 40min.

analysis. A typical IR spectrum of the synthesized PDMS, as shown in Fig. 8, displayed bands at 3360cm ?1 (-NH 2, stretching), 2851, 2920cm -1(-CH 2, -CH 3, stretching), 1260, 1420cm ?1 (Si-CH 3, stretching), 1020-1110cm ?1 (Si-O-Si, stretching) and 800cm ?1 (CH 3-Si-CH 3, stretching). These bands were characteristics of the desired compounds. Furthermore, the structure of the compounds was further supported by the 1H-NMR spectrum (Fig.9), which gave signals at &0.1ppm (Si-CH 3), 0.52ppm (Si-CH 2), 1.55ppm (CH 2-CH 2), 2.61ppm (NH-CH 2), 2.67ppm (NH-CH 2), and 3.45ppm (NH 2-CH 2). From these characterizations, it evidently confirmed that PDMS had been produced.

Conclusions
Amino value was depended on the amount of resin acceptor YDH-602, having no connection with the process conditions. In all cases, in the previous described reaction conditions, the viscosity for PDMS was mainly determined by reaction temperature, time, the amount of catalyst, accelerating agent and capping agent, pumpdown time. Thus, the process conditions should be confirmed by considering the actual needs. And the optimum ones to get PDMS with less than 100mPas viscosity were as followed: reaction temperature 100-110°C, time 3h, KOH 0.05%, DMSO 0.5% and MM 5-7%, distilling at 110°C/0.095Mpa for 40 min.
