Abstract
Abstract The present invention provides a heat-curable fluorosilicone rubber composition to be cured by hydrosilation reactions and having outstanding physical properties, especially improved transparency and processability, said composition comprising (A) a polydiorganosiloxane having at least two unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups and represented by the general formula (1): Ra1SiO(4-a)/2(1) wherein R1 represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group containing 0.01 to 15 mole % of an unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon group, a is a positive number of from 1.95 to 2.05. (B) a polyorganohydrogensiloxane having at least three hydrogen atoms directly bonded to silicon atoms in a molecule and represented by the general formula: <IMAGE> (2) wherein R2, R3 and R4 independently represents a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, X represents CF2 or C3F6O, b is equal to 2 or 3, c is equal to 1 or 2, b+c=3, m is an integer of 2 or more, n is an integer of 1 or more, and k is an integer of 2 or more, (C) a silica filler having a specific surface area of at least 50 m2/g, and (D) an addition reaction catalyst.
