Abstract

Abstract Granular silicone molding compositions consisting essentially of an organosiloxane resin whose melting point as measured by Durran''s mercury method is 25* to 200*C, having per silicon atom an average of from 1.0 to 1.7 organic radicals directly bonded to the silicon atoms and containing at least 0.25% by weight, based on the organosiloxane resin, of hydroxyl radicals directly bonded to the silicon atoms; glass fibres having lengths ranging from 0.2 to 10 mm; powdery inorganic fillers; and a catalytic amount of a curing catalyst combination. The compositions impart excellent mechanical strength to molded articles made therefrom and are easily handled.
