Abstract

The invention provides a novel chloro-terminated polysilane of the formula: EQU Cl[(R.sup.1 R.sup.2 Si).sub.n (R.sup.3 R.sup.4 Si).sub.m ].sub.k Cl(1) wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are alkyl and aryl groups, R.sup.4 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 2 to 12 carbon atoms selected from substituted and unsubstituted alkyl and aryl groups, n, m and k are numbers in the range: 0.ltoreq.n.ltoreq.10, 0<m.ltoreq.10, n+m.gtoreq.10, and k.gtoreq.1, especially k.gtoreq.5. It is prepared by exposing a high-molecular weight polysilane in chlorinated hydrocarbon to ultraviolet radiation in an inert gas atmosphere.
