Abstract: A two-part moisture cure organopolysiloxane composition comprising a base part and a catalyst package part is provided. The catalyst package part, despite comprising amino silane(s), alkoxy silane(s), and tin catalyst(s) and optionally reinforcing filler(s) and/or extending filler(s) in a carrier fluid, undergoes minimal phase separation during storage. This is achieved by utilizing silicon-free linear or branched polyethers comprising repeating units having the average formula (—CnH2n—O—)y wherein n is an integer from 3 to 6 inclusive and y is at least four, comprising one or more —OH terminal groups, —OR10 terminal groups or —OH and —OR10 terminal groups where R10 is an optionally functionalised hydrocarbon group having from 1 to 12 carbons; as the carrier fluid, enabling the catalyst package part to function as a shelf stable continuous phase.

Abstract: Described herein is a two-part condensation curable adhesive composition suitable for adhering a front lens having an inner surface coated with an anti-haze coating to a lamp body to create a sealed lamp unit. In general, once cured in place, residual ingredients from the adhesive composition or by-products of cure reactions thereof do not visibly inhibit functionality of the anti-haze coating of the sealed lamp unit.

Abstract: A composite non-vision insulation panel unit comprising an exterior sheet and an interior sheet which define a cavity there between, said cavity housing one or more insulation panels. The insulation panel(s) is/are spaced apart from said interior and exterior sheets respectively by means of a damping material having a shore A hardness value in the range of from 0 to 60 according to ASTM D 2240-05(2010), and the composite non-vision insulation panel unit is sealed with a sealant which maintains the cavity width between said interior and exterior sheet and encloses the cavity of the composite non-vision insulation panel units.

Abstract: A moisture curable composition is capable of cure to an elastomeric body. The composition includes an extended polymer, a suitable cross-linking agent, a suitable condensation catalyst, an organic plasticizer, and one or more fillers. The extended polymer includes an organosiloxane containing polymer of a specific formula and an organic extender selected from linear or branched mono unsaturated hydrocarbons, wherein the organopolysiloxane polymer comprises from 5 to 20% by weight of the composition. The cross-linking agent includes at least two hydroxyl and/or hydrolysable groups reactive with the organopolysiloxane polymer. The organic plasticizer is selected from one or more of the group of natural drying oils, fatty acid(s), fatty acid esters, polyols, and organic phosphates.

Abstract: A method of making a diluted polysiloxane containing polymer comprising the steps of: i) Preparing a polysiloxane containing polymer by the polycondensation of siloxane containing monomers and/or oligomers which comprise condensable groups in the presence of an organopolysiloxane and/or an organic based diluent material, a suitable catalyst and optionally an end-blocking agent; and ii) Where required quenching the polymerization process; wherein the diluent material is substantially retained within the resulting diluted organopolysiloxane.
