Coating composition and the use thereof

Claim 1

A coating composition comprising the combination of (a) a diorganopolysiloxane having 1 to 3 functional groups on both ends, represented by the following formula I, ##STR6## (b) a diorganopolysiloxane having 1 to 3 functional groups on only one end, represented by the following formula I', ##STR7## and (c) a cross-linking agent other than (a) or (b), and having two or more functional groups capable of undergoing condensation reactions with said functional groups, and represented by the formula X.sub.m S.sub.i R.sub.4-m, wherein X and R are as defined for Formula I, m is an integer of 2 to 4, or a condensate thereof, wherein in said formulas I and I' the designations R, R', R" and R"' each independently represent an alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, which may optionally have suitable substituents, X and X' each independently represents a functional group selected from the group consisting of halogen, ##STR8## in which R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , and R 6 each independently represents unsubstituted or substituted alkyl from 1 to 10 carbon atoms, n is a number from 100 to 10,000, p and q are independently integers from 1 to 3, r and s are integers from 0 to 3, wherein one of r and s is 0, and r is an integer from 1 to 3 when s is 0, and when r is 0 s is an integer from 1 to 3.
