Abstract: A phosphorus containing organosiloxane (GPTMS-DEP) was prepared using silane coupling agent and DEP, which was used as a modifier in epoxy systems. The flame retardancy of the modified epoxy resin reached 30 %. The glass transition temperatures (Tg) was 157 ℃, 45 ℃ higher than that of the neat system. The residual char yield under 720℃ and the temperature of 50 % weight loss increased obviously. SEM showed that GPTMS-DEP and epoxy resin was compatible when the content of GPTMS-DEP was below 20 %.

Key words: epoxy resin, organsilicon containing phosphorus, flame retardancy, thermal behavior
