Patent number: 4026835Abstract: Siloxane foams which are activated and cured by heating can be prepared by mixing an organohydrogensiloxane, a hydroxylated organosiloxane and a rhodium catalyst in amounts such that the ratio of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms to silicon-bonded hydroxyl radicals is from 2.5 to 40 and thereafter heating the mixture above 90.degree. C. The rhodium catalyst provided a pot life of at least 8 hours when used in amounts of 0.0025 grams per 100 grams of hydroxylated organosiloxane. The siloxane foams can be made to have an increased fire retardant property by adding 0.01 to 2 parts by weight carbon black based on the weight of the total composition. Siloxane foams are also prepared from mixing an organohydrogensiloxane, a hydroxylated organosiloxane, a vinyl containing triorganosiloxy endblocked polydiorganosiloxane and a rhodium catalyst.
