  • Patent number: 11760900
    Abstract: A moisture-curable composition is shown and described herein. The moisture-curable composition comprises a moisture-curable resin and a moisture scavenger selected from a cyanoalkylalkoxysilane. The inclusion of the cyanoalkylalkoxysilane in the moisture-curable composition has been found to effectively scavenge moisture and control the rate of curing and viscosity increase in the composition.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 27, 2021
    Date of Patent: September 19, 2023
    Assignee: Momentive Performance Materials Inc.
    Inventors: Hao Shen, Antonio Chaves, Amy Hua McKinstry, Monjit Phukan
  • Patent number: 11702511
    Abstract: Reactive poly(fluoroalkyl-functional siloxane) oligomers, method of making the same, and compositions comprising the same are shown and described herein. The reactive poly(fluoroalkyl-functional siloxane) oligomers are is derived from a hydrolysable fluoroalkyl-functional silanes. Coating compositions comprising reactive poly(fluoroalkyl-functional siloxane) oligomer(s) may be used to form a coating or a film on a substrate and impart hydrophobic and/or oleophobic properties. The reactive poly(fluoroalkyl-functional siloxane) oligomer are more hydrophobic and oleophobic and show better chemical resistance than the hydrolysable fluoroalkyl-functional silane.
