Abstract

Abstract The essential components in the inventive room temperature-curable organopolysiloxane composition are: (A-1) a diorganopolysiloxane of which each terminal silicon atom has a silanolic hydroxy group or two alkoxy groups; (A-2) a filler; (A-3) an alkenyloxy silane, e.g. methyl tri)isopropenyloxy)silane; (A-4) a guanidino-containing organosilicon compound, e.g. 3-(tetramethylguanidino)propyl trimethoxy silane; (A-5) an alcohol, e.g. methyl or ethyl alcohol; (B) an organosilicon compound having a silicon-bonded hydrogen atom; and (C) an organic tin compound as a catalyst. By virtue of the unique formulation above, the composition is very stable in storage in a moisture-free condition for a long period of time without losing the high curability when exposed to a moisture-containing atmosphere.
