  • Patent number: 8859635
    Abstract: Silicone composites subject to reticulation or reticulated, particularly for creating a coating or water-repellent and anti-adhesive film for flexible substrates such as paper or similar in the form of natural or synthetic polymer films. These compounds contain reticulating polyorganosiloxanes that have SiH units and unsaturated polyorganosiloxanes, preferably vinylated, suitable for reacting with the reticulating agent in an addition reaction and in the presence of platinum to form the reticulated anti-adhesive coating on the flexible substrate, plus at least one additive (D) to promote adhesion to it.

  • Patent number: 8828551
    Abstract: The general field of the invention is that of airbags. The invention relates to a process for improving the tear strength and the combing strength of coated fabrics intended for uses in the field of inflatable bags, using a silicone composition comprising an additive consisting of a polyorganosiloxane resin (V) and a calcium carbonate. After coating the composition onto the fabric supports and curing, the coated supports not only have optimum adhesion and crease resistance properties, but also have good properties in terms of combing strength and tear strength.

  • Patent number: 8535478
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a high-performance silicone elastomer composition that is adhesive and that can be crosslinked at high temperature for the assembly of silicone-based substrates, both by platinum and peroxide catalysis, and that may lend itself to a strip conformation. The composition comprises at least one gum, one catalyst and one adhesion promoter of polyorganohydrogensiloxane type, the nature and the amount of said adhesion promoter having been chosen so that Si—H groups are in excess following the reaction for crosslinking the composition, so as to obtain a potential surface density of covalent Si— bonds with the silicone substrate to be bonded of at least one covalent Si— bond per 60 nm2.

  • Patent number: 8333867
    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.

  • Patent number: 8129452
    Abstract: This invention is directed to stabilizing additives that contain at least one platinum complex, with the complex including a carbene group. The stabilizing additives make it possible to improve the resistance to decomposition of silicone elastomers under high temperatures. The additive can be used in a polyorganosiloxane composition intended for the production of a silicone elastomer with either crosslinks at high temperature under the action of organic peroxides or crosslinks at ambient temperature or with heat by polyaddition reactions in the presence of a metal catalyst.

  • Publication number: 20100178517
    Abstract: A method for obtaining a cross-linked fibrous material/silicone elastomer composite and the composite for textile architecture. The method avoids capillary ascension, preserves cohesion of the coated textile, and limits delamination between different silicone layers. The method comprises, in order: 1) coating one face of the textile substrate with a first liquid, silicone composition cross-linkable into an elastomer with a dynamic viscosity before cross-linking of between 5000 and 200000 mPa·s at 25° C.; 2) cross-linking the first liquid silicone composition; 3) coating the other face with a second liquid, silicone composition cross-linkable into an elastomer, said second silicone composition having a dynamic viscosity before cross-linking lower than or equal to 2000 mPa·s at 25° C.
