Abstract

Abstract Curable compositions comprise a silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane, a cross-linking agent which is an organic silane free of isocyanate groups and a metal organic compound containing a Ti-O-P bond. The compositions cure on exposure to the atmosphere and, in comparison to known compositions containing organotitanium compounds show a reduced tendency to be discoloured.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim 88 words
A composition curable at room temperature which comprises (a) a silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane, (b) a cross-linking agent which is an organic silane free of isocyanate groups selected from the class consisting of alkoxysilanes, oxime silanes and alkyl silanes with hydrolysable Si--N groups, and (c) a metal organic compound containing a Ti--O--P bond which is the reaction product of (c1) a titanium orthoester of formula Ti(OR) 4 in which R represents an alkyl group containing up to 10 carbon atoms and (c2) a mixture of mono- and di-alkyl acid phosphates.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 88 words
A composition curable at room temperature which comprises (a) a silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane, (b) a cross-linking agent which is an organic silane free of isocyanate groups selected from the class consisting of alkoxysilanes, oxime silanes and alkyl silanes with hydrolysable Si--N groups, and (c) a metal organic compound containing a Ti--O--P bond which is the reaction product of (c1) a titanium orthoester of formula Ti(OR) 4 in which R represents an alkyl group containing up to 10 carbon atoms and (c2) a mixture of mono- and di-alkyl acid phosphates.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the said silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane is selected from the class consisting of alkyl siloxanes, aryl siloxanes and alkyl-aryl siloxanes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the said silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane has a viscosity at 25° C. in the range of from about 100 to about 400,000 centipoise.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 29 words
A composition according to claim 3 in which the viscosity at 25° C. of the said silanol-terminated polyorganosiloxane is in the range of from about 1000 to 250,000 centipoise.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 19 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which R represents an alkyl group containing up to 6 carbon atoms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the said metal organic compound has a Ti:P molar ratio of from 10:1 to 1:4.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 18 words
A composition according to claim 6 in which the said Ti:P molar ratio is from 2:1 to 1:2.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 38 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the said metal organic compound is a compound produced by reacting a mixture of mono- and di-alkyl acid phosphates with a titanium orthoester and removing alcohol formed during the reaction.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 30 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the said cross-linking agent is present in an amount of 0.1 to 30 parts by weight per 100 parts of said polyorganosiloxane.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 27 words
A composition according to claim 9 in which the amount of cross-linking agent is from 0.5 to 25 parts by weight per 100 parts of said polyorganosiloxane.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 31 words
A composition according to claim 1 in which the amount of said metal organic compound is in the range 0.1 to 25 parts by weight per 100 parts of said polyorganosiloxane.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 28 words
A composition according to claim 11 in which the amount of metal organic compound is in the range 0.5 to 15 parts by weight per 100 parts polyorganosiloxane.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 28 words
A composition according to claim 11 in which the amount of metal organic compound is in the range 0.5 to 8 parts by weight per 100 parts polyorganosiloxane.
