Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
140 words
A room temperature vulcanizable composition which may be stored under anhydrous conditions, but when exposed to atmospheric moisture, cures to form an elastomer, comprising a diorganopolysiloxane having terminal condensable groups, a silicon compound having at least three Si-bonded hydrolyzable groups and an inorganic filler having a surface area of at least 20 m 2 /g, in which at least a portion of the surface of the inorganic filler contains a polymer obtained from the polymerization, in the presence of the filler of at least one compound of the formula HR.sup.1 C═CHX, where X is selected from the group consisting of a --CN group or a group of the formula --COOR 2 , R 2 is an alkyl radical having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and a methyl radical.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
50 words
The compositions of claims 1 or 2, wherein the inorganic filler having a surface area of at least 20 m 2 /g and having a polymer formed on its surface has a carbon content of from 0.2 to 7 percent by weight based on the weight of the inorganic filler.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
