Abstract
Abstract The curable compositions of this invention comprise a solubilized vinyl-containing fluorosilicone gum, a curing agent for the gum, a platinum-containing hydrosilation catalyst, a treated reinforcing silica filler, and a volatile solvent for the gum and curing agent. The organosilicon compound used to treat the silica filler is critical to obtaining a homogeneous curable composition free of agglomerated particles, and is a hydroxyl terminated polydiorganosiloxane containing silicon-bonded fluorocarbon radicals.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
227 words
A curable liquid composition exhibiting a viscosity of from 0.01 to 10 Pa.s at 25° C., said composition comprising the product obtained by blending to homogeneity (a) a fluorosilicone gum exhibiting a Williams plasticity number of from 120 to 400 at 25° C., where at least 75 mole percent of the repeating units of said gum correspond to the formula MeRfSiO, Me represents methyl, Rf represents a perfluoroalkylethyl radical containing a total of from 3 to 10 carbon atoms, any remaining units are individually selected from the group consisting of dimethylsiloxane and methylvinylsiloxane units, and the gum contains from 0.3 to 3 mole percent of silicon-bonded vinyl radicals; (b) an organohydrogensiloxane containing an average of at least 3 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule in an amount sufficient to cure said composition, where at least a portion of the silicon bonded hydrocarbon radicals present in said organohydrogensiloxane are represented by Rf; (c) a platinum-containing hydrosilation catalyst in an amount sufficient to promote curing of said composition; (d) from 1 to 25 percent by weight, based on the weight of said composition, of a finely divided reinforcing silica filler prepared by treating said filler with an effective amount of a siloxane of the general formula HO(MeRfSiO) n H where the average value of n is from 3 to 12, and (e) a volatile solvent for (a), (b) and (c).
Claim 2
