Abstract
Abstract Organopolysiloxane foams are prepared by heating a mixture containing (A) a diorganopolysiloxane, (B) silicon dioxide having a surface area of at least 50 m 2 /g, (C) a peroxide compound, (D) at least one organosilicon compound containing at least 2 weight percent of Si-bonded hydroxyl groups and (E) at least one organopolysiloxane having Si-bonded hydrogen, to a temperature between 280° and 320° C. at a pressure which does not exceed the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A process for the preparation of organopolysiloxane foams which comprises rapidly heating a mixture consisting essentially of (A) a diorganopolysiloxane having terminal groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl groups, hydrocarbonoxy groups and mixtures thereof and having a viscosity of at least 500,000 mPa.s at 25° C., (B) a pyrogenically produced silicon dioxide having a surface area of at least 50 m 2 /g, (C) a peroxide compound, (D) 2 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts of diorganopolysiloxane (A) of an organopolysiloxane containing at least 2 and up to 9.2 weight percent of Si-bonded hydroxyl groups and (E) at least one organopolysiloxane containing Si-bonded hydrogen, to a temperature of from 280° to 320° C. at a pressure which does not exceed that of the surrounding atmosphere.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
129 words
A process for the preparation of organopolysiloxane foams which comprises rapidly heating a mixture consisting essentially of (A) a diorganopolysiloxane having terminal groups selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl groups, hydrocarbonoxy groups and mixtures thereof and having a viscosity of at least 500,000 mPa.s at 25° C., (B) a pyrogenically produced silicon dioxide having a surface area of at least 50 m 2 /g, (C) a peroxide compound, (D) 2 to 20 parts by weight per 100 parts of diorganopolysiloxane (A) of an organopolysiloxane containing at least 2 and up to 9.2 weight percent of Si-bonded hydroxyl groups and (E) at least one organopolysiloxane containing Si-bonded hydrogen, to a temperature of from 280° to 320° C. at a pressure which does not exceed that of the surrounding atmosphere.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the organopolysiloxane (E) contains at least 0.01 percent by weight of Si-bonded hydrogen and is present in an amount of from 0.5 to 50 parts by weight of diorganopolysiloxane (A).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the organopolysiloxane (E) contains from 0.01 to 1.67 percent by weight of Si-bonded hydrogen.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
74 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the diorganopolysiloxane (A) is represented by the formula A.sub.n SiR.sub.3-n O(SiR.sub.2 O).sub.x SiR.sub.3-n Z.sub.n in which R is selected from the group consisting of monovalent hydrocarbon radicals and halogenated monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, Z is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl groups, hydrocarbonoxy groups and mixtures thereof, n is 1 and x has a value which corresponds to a viscosity of at least 500,000 mPa·s at 25° C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
