A process for preparing spherical silicone resin particles in which alkoxysilanes are reacted with water to form a hydrolysate is provided. The resulting silicone resin particles are isolated from a mixture. The silicone resin particles are dried and the particles are deagglomerated by ultrasonic sieving.

Impure gaseous hydrogen chloride from organochlorosilane hydrolysis is freed of impurities by first scrubbing with an organochlorosilane, which may be the same or different from the organochlorosilane(s) hydrolyzed, and then further scrubbing with chloromethane. The purified gaseous hydrogen chloride is preferably used in chlorosilane synthesis.
