Abstract: The present technology provides compositions, methods, and processes to form polysiloxanes. In one aspect, the present technology provides a process for the ring opening polymerization of a cyclosiloxane comprising contacting a cyclosiloxane with a bicyclic guanidine compound. The guanidine-containing compounds useful in the ring opening reaction include a fused ring structure comprising a guanidine functional group as part of the fused ring.
Abstract: The invention is directed to a detectable and stable composition comprising an organofunctional silane and/or hydrolyzate and/or partial or complete condensate thereof, a colloidal metal oxide, a water soluble organic dye having a positive charge and a counterion derived from a carboxylic acid of from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and water. The invention is also directed to a method for determining the uniformity and film thickness of a detectable composition applied to a substrate comprising applying to the surface of the substrate the detectable composition and measuring an optical property of the applied coating, the resulting measurement being related to the uniformity of the applied composition.
Abstract: The present invention provides curable compositions that are substantially free of metal catalysts including both tin and non-tin metal catalysts. The curable compositions employ a catalyst system comprising the combination of a carboxylic acid, an amino-containing adhesion promoter or a mixture of amine-containing adhesion promoters and an amino-containing siloxane. The combination of these materials accelerates the condensation curing of moisture curable silicones/non-silicones even in the absence of a metal-based catalyst.

Abstract: The present invention provides curable compositions that are free of metal catalysts including both tin and non-tin metal catalysts. The curable compositions employ a catalyst comprising curable polymers having reactive terminal silyl groups. In particular, a silylated carboxylic acid is an alternative to organotin or other metal catalysts. In addition, the catalyst may be used with an amino-containing adhesion promoter or a mixture of amine-containing adhesion promoters and an amino-containing siloxane. The combination of these materials accelerates the condensation curing of moisture curable silicones/non-silicones even in the absence of a metal-based catalyst.
