Siloxane monomer and oligomer were introduced to n-butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate copolymer for improvement of water resistance and tactile sensation of acryl-type emulsion. Terpolymerimerization of n-butylacrylate, methyl methacrylate and siloxane monomer or oligomer was carried out in aqueous solution. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of terpolymer decreased with increasing siloxane monomer, however, the Tg of terpolymer increased with increasing siloxane oligomer due to the crosslinking of acrylated end group. The adhesion property and surface energy of the obtained terpolymer decreased with introducing siloxane monomer or oligomer in terpolymer. Decrement of tack and surface energy means the enhancement of water resistance and tactile sensation of the emulsion.

Polyorganosiloxane(HBPS) modified polyurethane (UMPS) was synthesized to improve weatherability in the polyurethane (ITPU) sealant and its rheological propoerty was investigated. It was found that the viscosity increased with increasing HBPS content in polyurethane and maximum viscosity was observed in UMPS having 70/30 ITPU/HBPS ratio. This was understood that the segregation of HBPS segment in UMPS chain has been developed. Further increasing of the content of HBPS resulted in the lowering of viscosity because of the flexibility of HBPS block segment in UMPS chain. It was also found that UMPS has more sensitive environmental dependency of viscosity than ITPU such as shear rate, humidity and temperature. In additions, UMPS having Si(O$CH_3$)$_3$ end group (TUMPS) by adding coupling agent up to 0.3 wt% resulted in the increase of viscosity by the acceleration of curing. But introducing more than 0.5wt% curing agent to TUMPS caused the lowering of viscosity because of less NCO group in TUMPS for the curing.
