C. and a shear frequency of 0.1 Hz is 1.0.times.10.sup.2 to 1.0.times.10.sup.4 Pa, and in which the complex elastic modulus is 1.0.times.10.sup.5 Pa or less, and a silicone gel which is characterized by the fact that in a silicone gel which seals or fills electrical or electronic parts, the loss elastic modulus of this silicone gel at a temperature of 25.degree. C. and a shear frequency of 0.1 Hz is 1.0.times.10.sup.2 to 1.0.times.10.sup.4 Pa, and the complex elastic modulus is 1.0.times.10.sup.5 Pa or less.

Abstract: A curable silicone composition cures to form a silicone cured product with improved fire-retarding properties. The composition comprises a hydrosilylation-reaction curable silicone composition Fire-retarding properties are imparted to the composition using a silica powder with a specific surface area of not less than 50 sq. m/g and a diamine compound. The cured product is preferably a silicone gel.

Abstract: The present invention provides organosiloxane compositions that cure to optically transparent gels by a hydrosilation reaction and contain a) two types of alkenyl-substituted organopolysiloxanes, and b) a diorganopolysiloxane containing an average of at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule that are located on non-terminal silicon atoms. The molar ratio of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms to alkenyl radicals in the composition is from 0.1 to 1.2.
