Abstract

Abstract UV curable epoxysilicone compositions are provided which can be used to impart improved release characteristics to plastic or paper substrates in an odor-free manner. Polyaryloniumhexafluorometalloid salts are used as photoinitiators. The UV curable compositions have condensed epoxyorganosiloxy units and haloarylalkylsiloxy units and have been found to be effective as control release agents when blended with epoxysiloxanes.
