Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a novel process for making a solid solventless MQ resin comprising the steps of (1)(A) feeding at least one MQ resin dispersed in a volatile solvent into an extrusion device, (2) removing the volatile solvent to form a solid solventless MQ resin; and (3) recovering the solid solventless MQ resin, provided steps (1) to (3) are completed without the addition of a linear silicone fluid.

Abstract: Siloxane resins containing both polyoxyalkylene M siloxy units and alkyl functional M and T siloxy units and aqueous compositions thereof are disclosed. The aqueous compositions contain dispersed particles stabilized by the siloxane resin, and are useful for the entrapment and delivery of various personal, household, and medical care actives.

Abstract: Resin modified elastomers, methods of making them and their uses. The method for making the elastomers comprises reacting in a diluent an ?SiH functional siloxane; a diene, diyne or ene-yne compound, a resin having the formula (R13SiO1/2)x(SiO4/2)y(R1SiO3/2)z where each R1 is independently a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms or an unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 2 to 30 carbon atoms x is ?1, y?0, z?0 and y+z?1.

Abstract: A composition comprising (A) at least one organosiloxane resin having an average of at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen groups per molecule; (B) at least one polyene having an average of at least two non-aromatic carbon-carbon double bonds per molecule; and (C) a catalyst. Methods for preparing the above-described composition are also disclosed.

The method for making the elastomers comprises reacting in a diluent an ≡SiH functional siloxane; a diene, diyne or ene-yne compound, a resin having the formula (R13SiO1/2)x(SiO4/2)y(R1SiO3/2)z where each R1 is independently a monovalent hydrocarbon group having 1 to 30 carbon atoms or an unsaturated hydrocarbon group having 2 to 30 carbon atoms x is≧1, y≧0, z≧0 and y+z≧1.

Abstract: Siloxane compositions are useful as traction fluids in traction drive systems which are subject to varied operating temperature and pressure conditions. Specific siloxane compositions included contain units of formulae (I) (R3SiO1/2)(RSiO3/2)(SiO4/2), (II) (R3SiO1/2)(RSiO3/2), (III) (R3SiO1/2)(SiO4/2), (IV) (R3SiO1/2)(R2SiO2/2)(RSiO3/2), (V) (R3SiO1/2)(R2SiO2/2), and (VI) (R2SiO2/2)a in varying mole percents, where a is an integer ranging from 3 to 20 and each R is independently selected from alkyl groups comprising 1 to 18 carbon atoms and aryl groups comprising 6 to 18 carbon atoms.

Abstract: Traction fluids suitable for operations under widely varying temperature environments, particularly having excellent low temperature properties are described. The tractions fluids comprise blends of organic oils and siloxane compositions. The siloxane compositions may include MTQ, MT, MQ, MDT, MDM, or D units in varying molar percents.
