Abstract

Abstract A composition comprising a polyolefin and an additive selected from cyclic siloxanes containing at least one aromatic group attached to silicon; linear siloxanes containing at least one aromatic group and a silanol content greater than 0.4 weight percent, and linear siloxanes containing at least one aromatic group and having a functional group convertible to a silanol content of greater than 0.4 weight percent by ambient hydrolysis conditions.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 108 words
A composition consisting essentially of a polyolefin and 1.0 to 5.0 weight percent, based on the total weight of the polyolefin, of an additive selected from (i) cyclic siloxanes containing at least one aromatic group attached to silicon through a silicon-carbon bond; (ii) liner siloxanes having the general formula HO{C 6 H 5 (CH 3 )SiO} x H wherein x has a value of from 2 to 10, (iii) linear siloxanes having the general formula RO{C 6 H 5 (CH 3 )SiO} x R wherein x has a value of from 2 to 36 and R is selected from a group consisting of CH 3 O-- and ##STR3##
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 108 words
A composition consisting essentially of a polyolefin and 1.0 to 5.0 weight percent, based on the total weight of the polyolefin, of an additive selected from (i) cyclic siloxanes containing at least one aromatic group attached to silicon through a silicon-carbon bond; (ii) liner siloxanes having the general formula HO{C 6 H 5 (CH 3 )SiO} x H wherein x has a value of from 2 to 10, (iii) linear siloxanes having the general formula RO{C 6 H 5 (CH 3 )SiO} x R wherein x has a value of from 2 to 36 and R is selected from a group consisting of CH 3 O-- and ##STR3##
