Abstract

Abstract Heat-curable elastomeric compositions having unprimed adhesion to a substrate are obtained by mixing from 0.1 to 10.0 parts by weight of a room-temperature-curable silicone elastomer stock having silicon-bonded acetoxy radicals with 100 parts by weight of an organic-peroxide-curable silicone rubber.

Claim 2
Dependent Claim 134 words
A heat-curable composition obtained by mixing components comprising (a) 100 parts by weight of an organic-peroxide-curable organopolysiloxane composition, stable in the presence of moisture and curable with heat to an elastomeric solid, and (b) from 0.1 to 10.0 parts by weight of a room-temperature-curable organopolysiloxane composition having silicon-bonded acetoxy radicals, stable in the absence of moisture and curable in the presence of moisture to a coherent rubbery solid; said room-temperature-curable composition being the only source of silicon-bonded acetoxy radicals in the heat-curable composition, there being sufficient silicon-bonded acetoxy radicals in (b) to provide from 0.03 to 0.3 parts by weight of silicon-bonded acetoxy radicals in every 100 parts by weight of the heat-curable composition comprising (a) and (b), said heat-curable composition having better adhesion to an unprimed surface than does the organic-peroxide-curable organopolysiloxane composition.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 86 words
The composition according to claim 1 wherein the organic-peroxide curable organopolysiloxane composition (a) comprises; (i) a benzene-soluble polyorganosiloxane gum having a viscosity of at least 100,000 centipoise at 25° C. and having the average unit formula R.sub.n SiO.sub.(4.sub.-n)/2 in which each R is selected from the group consisting of monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, each having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, inclusive, and 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl and n has an average value of from 1.98 to 2.01, (ii) a reinforcing silica filler and (iii) an organic peroxide curing agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 83 words
The composition according to claim 2 wherein the room-temperature-curable organopolysiloxane composition comprises the reaction product of (iv) a hydroxyl-endblocked polyorganosiloxane fluid having a viscosity of less than 100,000 centipoise at 25° C. and, (v) an acetoxysilane selected from the group consisting of tetraacetoxysilane and organotriacetoxysilanes, the organic radicals of the fluid (iv) and the organotriacetoxysilanes being any R as defined for (i) above, there being at least one mole of acetoxysilane (v) for every mole of silicon-bonded hydroxyl radicals in the fluid (iv).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 139 words
