Abstract
Abstract A method is provided for reducing the density of silicone foam from a platinum catalyzed foamable two-package mixture of vinyl organosiloxane, organohydrogen siloxane, and hydroxylated material. The platinum catalyst used in the foamable mixture is in the form of a mixture of a platinum vinyl siloxane and a platinum triarylphosphine. A platinum catalyst mixture of platinum vinylsiloxane and triarylphosphine also has been found effective.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
113 words
A method for making silicone foam having a reduced foam density comprising agitating a mixture of ingredients comprising by weight (A) 100 parts of a vinyl-terminated polydiorganosiloxane, (B) 0.5 to 50 parts of a hydride polysiloxane, (C) 0.2 to 10 parts of a hydroxylated material, and (D) an effective amount of a platinum catalyst consisting essentially of (i) platinum vinyl siloxane complex, and (ii) a member selected from a platinum triarylphosphine and a triarylphosphine, where there is present in the platinum catalyst, per part by weight of platinum of the platinum vinyl siloxane complex, from 0.2 to 4 parts of platinum of the platinum triarylphosphine or 0.2 to 3 parts of the triarylphosphine.
