Abstract

Abstract Certain polydiorganosiloxane compositions bearing mercaptoalkyl radicals and vinyl radicals are disclosed which cure in the presence of radiation such as ultraviolet light. The compositions consist essentially of a mixture of a triorganosiloxane-endblocked polydiorganosiloxane fluid in which from 1 to 5 percent of the organic radicals are mercaptoalkyl radicals and a methylvinylpolysiloxane. The compositions may be applied to a substrate such as paper and exposed to radiation to prepare a coated substrate that provides premium release of aggressive acrylic adhesives.
