Abstract
Abstract Silicone rubber compositions comprising (A) a diorganopolysiloxane in which the organo substituents are 0.01 to 2 mole % vinyl groups, 0 to 10 mole % phenyl groups and the remainder is alkyl groups, (B) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane, (C) a (O) valent platinum-(III) phosphor complex and, optionally, (D) a filler. These compositions can be cured with steam. Foamable compositions comprising (A), (B), (C) and hydrophobicized wet-process silica.
