Abstract A radiation-curable release composition is disclosed which comprises: (A) an organopolysiloxane represented by the formula RSi(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --O--(Si(CH.sub.3).sub.2 O).sub.n (Si(CH 3 )(R)O) m Si(CH 3 ) 2 R (I) wherein in Formula (I), each R is --R 1 --O(O)C--C(R 2 )═CH 2 , --R 1 --O--C(R 2 )═CH 2 or is derived from an organic molecule containing both ethylenic unsaturation and epoxide functionality; R 1 is a hydrocarbylene group; each R 2 is independently hydrogen or a methyl or ethyl group; m is a number from about 1 to about 15; and n is a number from about 50 to about 300; and (B) an organosiloxane copolymer represented by the formula (R.sub.3 SiO).sub.x (SiO.sub.4/2).sub.y (II) wherein in Formula (II), each R is independently a hydrocarbon group or a group represented by the formula --O(O)C--C(R*)═CH.sub.2 wherein R* is hydrogen or a methyl or ethyl group; x is a number from about 0.25 to about 75; y is a number from about 1 to about 56; and the ratio of x to y is from about 0.3:1 to about 1.5. In one embodiment, the inventive release composition further comprises (C) an acrylate represented by the formula CH.sub.2 ═C(R**)--C(O)O--R.sup.2 (III) wherein in Formula (III), R** is hydrogen or a methyl or ethyl group, and R 2 is a hydrocarbon group of about 10 to about 24 carbon atoms. A method of producing release-coated substrates, the release-crated articles thus produced, and multi-layer articles or constructions incorporating a release layer also are disclosed. When the release compositions are cured such as by radiation, the cured compositions exhibit a desirable high and controlled release force at high speeds such as the speeds utilized in label processing.
