Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the adhesive bonding of fibrous supports using a silicone elastomer which is thermosetted by radical crosslinking using at least one peroxide. The silicone elastomer is inserted between the supports over at least a portion of the region of overlap of the supports, where the supports are held in contact in the region of overlap in an manner that prevents trapping of air at the interface between the supports. The supports containing the silicone elastomer are heated while in intimate contact to allow the adhesive bonding of the supports by crosslinking of the adhesive.

Abstract: The invention relates to the adhesive bonding of fibrous materials, in particular of flexible supports, such as woven supports or nonwoven supports, comprising at least one silicone coating obtained by the application of a coat or by impregnation. The aim of the invention is to provide an improved process for combining together fiber/silicone composite parts using a silicone elastomer, which process has to be economical and not very expensive to carry out. This aim is achieved by the invention, which relates to a process for the adhesive bonding of fibrous supports, this process being of the type of those consisting in causing the supports to be adhesively bonded to overlap one another, a silicone-based adhesive thermosetting by radical crosslinking using at least one peroxide being inserted between the supports over at least a portion of the region of overlap.

Abstract: A silicone composition useful especially for the production of varnishes applicable to substrates whose coefficient of friction it is sought to reduce. The object is to provide an anti-friction silicone varnish for textiles coated with silicone elastomers which is economic and adhesive, provides the desired slip, resists soiling and is shiny. This object is achieved by a crosslinkable silicone composition containing two silicones A and B which react with one another in the presence of a catalyst C to allow crosslinking, and a particulate component D selected from the group comprising powdered (co)polyamides—preferably (co)polyamides 6, 12 and 6/12. The (co)polyamide particles are of substantially rounded shape and the mean particle diameter ?md is between 0.1 and 200 ?m, preferably between 5 and 100 ?m and particularly preferably between 10 and 50 ?m. Also disclosed is a varnishing process and a composite containing the varnished substrate.
