Abstract
Abstract An inherently mold-releasable composition which may be used as either the casting composition or, in its cured state, the mold or as a mold liner is disclosed. No additional mold release agent is necessary when using the composition herein which is prepared from (a) hydroxyl or carboxyl-terminated polymers containing pendant 3-perfluoroalkyl-2-iodopropyl or 2-perfluoroalkyl-1iodoethyl groups, and (b) polyisocyanates or polyepoxides.
