Abstract
Abstract An aqueous silicone elastomeric emulsion is a storage stable, paste-type material useful as a caulking material. The caulking material is obtained by mixing an anionic emulsion containing dispersed particles of hydroxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane, dialkyltindicarboxylate, silane of the formula RSi(OR') 3 where R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive and R' is a lower alkyl radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive or a radical of the formula --N═CR 2 , and inert, non-siliceous filler.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
201 words
A silicone composition consisting essentially of the aqueous emulsion 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 per radical 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 0.075 to 0.75 part by weight of dialkyltindicarboxylate, (C) from 0.2 to 5 parts by weight of silane of the formula RSi(OR') 3 where R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive and R' is a lower alkyl radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive or a radical of the formula --N═CR 2 where R is as defined above and, (D) from 50 to 200 parts by weight of inert, non-siliceous filler, to produce a paste-type emulsion having a total solids content of greater than 70% by weight and being useful as caulking material that cures upon removal of the water to an elastomer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
201 words
A silicone composition consisting essentially of the aqueous emulsion 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 per radical 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 0.075 to 0.75 part by weight of dialkyltindicarboxylate, (C) from 0.2 to 5 parts by weight of silane of the formula RSi(OR') 3 where R is a monovalent hydrocarbon radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive and R' is a lower alkyl radical of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive or a radical of the formula --N═CR 2 where R is as defined above and, (D) from 50 to 200 parts by weight of inert, non-siliceous filler, to produce a paste-type emulsion having a total solids content of greater than 70% by weight and being useful as caulking material that cures upon removal of the water to an elastomer.
