Abstract
Abstract A silicone composition useful as a caulking material consists essentially of an aqueous emulsion of a hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane, dialkyltindicarboxylate, phenyltrimethoxysilane, and inert non-siliceous filler. The composition is of a paste-type viscosity while an emulsion, then becomes a soft, putty-type material having a plasticity number of from 125 to 300 when the water is removed from the emulsion. The dried composition remains a soft, putty-like material upon aging.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
161 words
A silicone composition consisting essentially of the product obtained by mixing (A) 100 parts by weight of an anionically stabilized, hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane having a weight average molecular weight of above 50,000, the organic radicals being monovalent hydrocarbon radicals containing less than 7 carbon atoms or 2-(perfluoroalkyl)ethyl radicals having less than 7 carbon atoms per radical, present as an emulsion of dispersed particles in water, the emulsion having a pH of greater than 9 and a solids content of greater than 50% by weight, (B) from 0.05 to 0.4 part by weight of dialkyltindicarboxylate, (C) from 1 to 12 parts by weight of phenyltrimethoxysilane, and (D) from 50 to 200 parts by weight of inert, nonsiliceous filler having an average particle size of less than 2 micrometers, to produce a material having a paste viscosity which, when the water is removed, has a plasticity number of from 125 to 300, is insoluble in water, and does not harden appreciably on aging.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
161 words
A silicone composition consisting essentially of the product obtained by mixing (A) 100 parts by weight of an anionically stabilized, hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane having a weight average molecular weight of above 50,000, the organic radicals being monovalent hydrocarbon radicals containing less than 7 carbon atoms or 2-(perfluoroalkyl)ethyl radicals having less than 7 carbon atoms per radical, present as an emulsion of dispersed particles in water, the emulsion having a pH of greater than 9 and a solids content of greater than 50% by weight, (B) from 0.05 to 0.4 part by weight of dialkyltindicarboxylate, (C) from 1 to 12 parts by weight of phenyltrimethoxysilane, and (D) from 50 to 200 parts by weight of inert, nonsiliceous filler having an average particle size of less than 2 micrometers, to produce a material having a paste viscosity which, when the water is removed, has a plasticity number of from 125 to 300, is insoluble in water, and does not harden appreciably on aging.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the polydiorganosiloxane is a polydimethylsiloxane having a weight average molecular weight in the range of from 200,000 to 700,000.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
39 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the dialkyltindicarboxylate is selected from the group consisting of dibutyltindiacetate, dibutyltindilaurate, and dioctyltindilaurate, in an amount of from 0.1 to 0.3 part by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polydiorganosiloxane.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the phenyltrimethoxysilane is present in an amount of from 2 to 8 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polydiorganosiloxane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
12 words
The composition of claim 1 in which the filler is calcium carbonate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
44 words
The composition of claim 5 in which the calcium carbonate has an average particle size of from 0.5 to 1.0 micrometers and is present in an amount of from 120 parts to 200 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the polydiorganosiloxane.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
78 words
The composition of claim 2 in which the dialkyltindicarboxylate is dioctyltindilaurate in an amount of from 0.1 to 0.3 part by weight, the phenyltrimethoxysilane is present in an amount of from 2 to 8 parts by weight, and the filler is calcium carbonate having an average particle size of from 0.5 to 1.0 micrometers and is present in an amount of from 120 parts to 200 parts by weight, all per 100 parts by weight of the polydimethylsiloxane.
