Abstract

Abstract A specified group of monoalkylamines and alkylenediamines wherein the alkyl or alkylene group contains from two to four carbon atoms imparts long term storage stability at temperatures of up to 40° C. to one part polyorganosiloxane compositions curable by a platinum catalyzed hydrosilation reaction. The inhibitors do not interfere with the ability of these compositions to cure rapidly at temperatures of 135° C. to form gels that are useful encapsulating materials for delicate devices, including electronic circuits.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 277 words
A storage stable, heat curable one-part polyorganosiloxane composition consisting essentially of the product obtained by mixing (1) at least one organosiloxane copolymer consisting essentially of from 80 to 96.5 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 2 SiO units, from 2.0 to 10.0 mol percent of CH 3 SiO 1 .5 units, from 1.25 to 6.0 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 3 SiO 0 .5 units and from 0.25 to 4.0 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 2 (CH 2 ═CH)SiO 0 .5 units; (2) an organohydrogensiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, no more than one silicon-bonded hydrogen per silicon atom and organic radicals selected from the group consisting of alkyl containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms per radical, phenyl and 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl, said organohydrogensiloxane providing from 0.7 to 1.2 silicon-bonded hydrogens per silicon-bonded vinyl radical present in said composition; (3) a platinum catalyst in an amount sufficient to promote the reaction of (1) and (2) in the absence of an inhibitor; and (4) a platinum catalyst inhibitor, said composition being characterized by the presence of a platinum catalyst inhibitor of the general formula R 2 1 NR 3 NR 2 2 or R 4 NH 2 in an amount sufficient to impart long term storage stability to said compositions at 40° C. without inhibiting the catalytic activity of (3) at 135° C., where each R 1 is individually an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is R 1 or hydrogen, R 3 represents an alkylene radical containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and R 4 represents an alkyl radical containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 277 words
A storage stable, heat curable one-part polyorganosiloxane composition consisting essentially of the product obtained by mixing (1) at least one organosiloxane copolymer consisting essentially of from 80 to 96.5 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 2 SiO units, from 2.0 to 10.0 mol percent of CH 3 SiO 1 .5 units, from 1.25 to 6.0 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 3 SiO 0 .5 units and from 0.25 to 4.0 mol percent of (CH 3 ) 2 (CH 2 ═CH)SiO 0 .5 units; (2) an organohydrogensiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, no more than one silicon-bonded hydrogen per silicon atom and organic radicals selected from the group consisting of alkyl containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms per radical, phenyl and 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl, said organohydrogensiloxane providing from 0.7 to 1.2 silicon-bonded hydrogens per silicon-bonded vinyl radical present in said composition; (3) a platinum catalyst in an amount sufficient to promote the reaction of (1) and (2) in the absence of an inhibitor; and (4) a platinum catalyst inhibitor, said composition being characterized by the presence of a platinum catalyst inhibitor of the general formula R 2 1 NR 3 NR 2 2 or R 4 NH 2 in an amount sufficient to impart long term storage stability to said compositions at 40° C. without inhibiting the catalytic activity of (3) at 135° C., where each R 1 is individually an alkyl radical containing from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R 2 is R 1 or hydrogen, R 3 represents an alkylene radical containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms, and R 4 represents an alkyl radical containing from 2 to 4 carbon atoms.
