Acryl functional silicone compounds

Claim 1

An acryl functional silicone compound obtained from a method comprising forming an intimate mixture of an amino functional silicon compound in which the amino group is a primary amine or a secondary amine and an acryl functional compound having at least two acrylate, methacrylate, acrylamide, or methacrylamide groups per molecule at a temperature less than 100° C. for a time sufficient to produce an acryl functional silicone compound in which at least one silicon atom having an acryl functional radical bonded to the silicon atoms through a silicon-carbon bond, where the acryl functional radical contains at least one carbon-nitrogen-carbon bond and an acrylate, methacrylate, acrylamide, or methacrylamide group, any other groups bonded to the silicon atom being monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, fluorinated alkyl radicals, hydrolyzable groups whose hydrolyzed groups do not form a salt with the nitrogen atoms, divalent oxygen atoms which bond two silicon atoms in an Si--O--Si linkage, divalent hydrocarbon radicals bonding at least two silicon atoms together, silicon atoms which are present and which do not have an acryl functional radical bonded thereto can have bonded thereto monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, fluorinated alkyl radicals, hydroyzable groups whose hydrolyzed groups do not form a salt with the nitrogen atoms, divalent oxygen atoms which bond two silicon atoms in an Si--O--Si linkage, divalent hydrocarbon radicals bonding at least two silicon atoms together, and said acryl functional silicone compound further comprising a photoinitiator which causes the acryl functional silicone compound to crosslink upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
