Abstract: A room temperature vulcanizable silicone rubber composition with very low modulus comprising a silanol end-stopped diorganopolysiloxane, a difunctional acetamide coupler and as the cross-linker, a minor amount of compound selected from ketoxime functional and aminoxy functional silanes and mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel room temperature-curable composition based on a polyoxyalkylene polyether, e.g. polyoxypropylene, admixed with a curing agent which is very stable when kept in a dry atmosphere or in a hermetically sealed condition but is readily cured when exposed to atmospheric air containing moisture into a rubber-like elastomer. The polyoxyalkylene polyether is terminated at both molecular chain ends with organosilyl groups having alkenyloxy groups bonded to the silicon atoms and can be prepared by the addition reaction of an allyl-terminated polyoxyalkylene polyether with an organosilane or organopolysiloxane compound having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom and at least one silicon-bonded alkenyloxy group in a molecule in the presence of a platinum catalyst.
