Abstract: The present invention relates to a mixture of polyalkylsiloxanes that cure at temperatures of about 170° C. while being unreactive under ambient conditions during storage or transport and which are obtained through a hydrosilylation reaction wherein a mixture of ethylenically unsaturated olefins consisting of 1-100% of one or more polyene(s), and 0-99 mol % of monounsaturated olefins with 6 to 15 carbon atoms is reacted with an amount of one or more polyalkylhydrosiloxanes in the presence of a hydrosilylation catalyst. Furthermore, the present invention relates to water-based compositions suitable for use in metal casting processes as a mold release agent comprising a mixture of polyalkylsiloxanes of the invention and a non-ionic surfactant. In addition, the present invention relates to the use of the polyalkylsiloxanes and mixtures of polyalkylsiloxanes as defined herein.

Furthermore, the invention concerns polyalkylsiloxane comprising alkyl side chains consisting of linear or branched alkyl groups with 40 to 60 carbon atoms, with 16 to 30 carbon atoms, and 6 to 15 carbon atoms. In addition, the present invention relates to water-based compositions suitable for use in metal casting processes as a mold release agent comprising a mixture of polyalkylsiloxanes, a non-ionic surfactant having a HLB value of at least 8, and less than 20 wt.-% of waxes. In addition, the present invention relates to the use of the polyalkylsiloxanes and mixtures of polyalkylsiloxanes.
