Abstract: A polymerizable liquid useful for the production of a three-dimensional object comprised of silicone, or a copolymer thereof, which includes at least one constituent selected from the group consisting of (i) a blocked or reactive blocked siloxane-containing prepolymer, (ii) a blocked or reactive blocked siloxane-containing polyisocyanate, and (iii) a blocked or reactive blocked siloxane-containing polyisocyanate chain extender. Methods of using the same in additive manufacturing processes such as continuous liquid interface production are also described.

Abstract: A method of forming a three-dimensional object comprised of a silicone polymer is carried out by: (a) providing a silicone dual cure resin; (b) forming a three-dimensional intermediate from that resin, where the intermediate has the shape of, or a shape to be imparted to, the three-dimensional object, and where the resin is solidified in that intermediate object by irradiating with light; and then (c) further reacting the three-dimensional intermediate to form the three-dimensional object. The silicone dual cure resin includes: (i) a light polymerizable first reactant; (ii) a photoinitiator; (iii) at least one additional reactant(s), and (iv) optionally a catalyst. At least one of the first reactant and the additional reactant(s) contains a siloxane linkage.

Abstract: Silane-crosslinkable polymeric compositions comprising a polyolefin having hydrolyzable silane groups, an acidic silanol condensation catalyst, and a phenolic antioxidant. The phenolic antioxidant has a phenol-based moiety fused with a cyclic ether where the oxygen atom of the cyclic ether is located in the para position relative to the hydroxyl group of the phenol-based moiety. Such crosslinkable polymeric compositions can be employed in various articles of manufacture, such as in the wire and cable industry.

Abstract: Silane-crosslinkable polymeric compositions comprising a polyolefin having hydrolyzable silane groups, an acidic silanol condensation catalyst, and a phenolic antioxidant. The phenolic antioxidant comprises two sulfur-containing radicals, one located at the ortho position and the other located at the para position relative to the hydroxyl group of the phenol. Such crosslink able polymeric compositions can be employed in various articles of manufacture, such as in the wire and cable industry.
