Abstract: Disclosed is a touchscreen display assembly for use in harsh environments. The touchscreen cable emerges from the touchscreen through a hole in a glass panel. The hole is inside the perimeter of a sealing strip which forms the seal for the touchscreen airgap. The touchscreen may be assembled and tested independently, and subsequently integrated with a display screen and protective front cover. The seal to the front cover is made without the need for a bezel overlapping the touchscreen top film, thereby avoiding possible damage to the touchscreen. Elimination of the bezel allows the touchscreen display assembly to have an attractive planar front surface, and also avoids accumulation of dirt between a bezel and the touchscreen top film.

Abstract: Polydiorganosiloxane or polyhydroorganosiloxane compositions are prepared which are room-temperature curable without the presence of a catalyst and in particular an organotin catalyst. The compositions are useful as primer coating compositions to promote adhesion of room temperature vulcanizable (RTV) silicone rubber coatings, especially those RTVs containing polydiorganosiloxanes.
