Abstract

Abstract The primer compositions consist essentially of a mercapto-containing organosilane or organopolysiloxane as one component and a titanic acid ester as the other. They are suitable for adhesively bonding a room-temperature-curing silicone rubber elastomer irrespective of its crosslinking mechanism to various substrates. The bond obtained by use of the primer composition is very strong and highly resistant to water or sea water even on prolonged immersion at high temperatures.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
A primer composition consisting essentially of ( 1) 2 to 98 parts by weight of a mercapto-containing organosilane or organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula ##EQU2## where R 1 is an alkylene group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, X is a hydroxy or hydrolyzable atom or group and a, b, and c have values as expressed by 0<a≦1, 0≦b≦1 and 0<c≦3, respectively, with the proviso that a+b+c has the value as expressed by 0<(a+b+c)≦4 and (2) 98 to 2 parts by weight of a titanic acid ester.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 99 words
A primer composition consisting essentially of ( 1) 2 to 98 parts by weight of a mercapto-containing organosilane or organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula ##EQU2## where R 1 is an alkylene group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, X is a hydroxy or hydrolyzable atom or group and a, b, and c have values as expressed by 0<a≦1, 0≦b≦1 and 0<c≦3, respectively, with the proviso that a+b+c has the value as expressed by 0<(a+b+c)≦4 and (2) 98 to 2 parts by weight of a titanic acid ester.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words

Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The primer composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein said R 2 is a methyl group.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
The primer composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein said hydrolyzable group denoted by X is a methoxy group.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
The primer composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein said component (1) is 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 22 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
The primer composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein said titanic acid ester is selected from the group consisting of tetraisopropyl titanate, tetrabutyl titanate and tetra(2-ethylhexyl) titanate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 28 words
The primer composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the amount of said components (1) and (2) is in the ratio of from 10:90 to 90:10 by weight.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 140 words
A method for adhesively bonding a room-temperature-curing silicone rubber elastomer to a substrate which comprises applying to the surface of the substrate a primer composition consisting essentially of (1) 2 to 98 parts by weight of a mercapto-containing organosilane or organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula ##EQU3## where R 1 is an alkylene group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, X is a hydroxy or hydrolyzable atom or group and a, b, and c have values as expressed by 0<a≦1. 0≦b≦1 and 0<c≦3, respectively, with the proviso that a=b=c has the value as expressed by 0<(a+b+c ≦ 4 and (2) 98 to 2 parts by weight of a titanic acid ester, contacting the uncured elastomer with the thus primed surface, and subjecting the thus contacted elastomer to curing conditions.
Claim 11
Independent Claim 140 words
A method for adhesively bonding a room-temperature-curing silicone rubber elastomer to a substrate which comprises applying to the surface of the substrate a primer composition consisting essentially of (1) 2 to 98 parts by weight of a mercapto-containing organosilane or organopolysiloxane represented by the average unit formula ##EQU3## where R 1 is an alkylene group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, X is a hydroxy or hydrolyzable atom or group and a, b, and c have values as expressed by 0<a≦1. 0≦b≦1 and 0<c≦3, respectively, with the proviso that a=b=c has the value as expressed by 0<(a+b+c ≦ 4 and (2) 98 to 2 parts by weight of a titanic acid ester, contacting the uncured elastomer with the thus primed surface, and subjecting the thus contacted elastomer to curing conditions.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 33 words
The method as claimed in claim 9 wherein said primer composition is applied to the surface of the substrate in an amount larger than 5 g per square meter of the surface area.
