Abstract

Abstract Disclosed are novel, cross-linked or cross-linkable linear poly(organohydrosiloxanes) wherein the cross-linking units are derived from polycyclic polyenes. These polymers or prepolymers are prepared by reacting or partially reacting the poly(organohydrosiloxanes) with the polycyclic polyene in the presence of a catalyst.
