Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of preparing dimeric or polymeric organosilane esters whose ester component is at least one glycol moiety and whose silicon atoms are linked together by a glycol moiety. These compounds are known and are used as hydraulic fluids whose preparation involves considerable difficulty. The present invention avoids these difficulties by setting out from organosilane diglycol esters or triglycol esters and transposing them with diglycols or polyglycols. In this transposition the glycol ether corresponding to the glycols is formed and is removed by distillation. The degree of condensation of the organosilane ester products depends on the weight-ratio of the organosilane glycol ester to the diglycols or polyglycols.
Abstract: The present invention provides a novel room temperature-curable composition based on a polyoxyalkylene polyether, e.g. polyoxypropylene, admixed with a curing agent which is very stable when kept in a dry atmosphere or in a hermetically sealed condition but is readily cured when exposed to atmospheric air containing moisture into a rubber-like elastomer. The polyoxyalkylene polyether is terminated at both molecular chain ends with organosilyl groups having alkenyloxy groups bonded to the silicon atoms and can be prepared by the addition reaction of an allyl-terminated polyoxyalkylene polyether with an organosilane or organopolysiloxane compound having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom and at least one silicon-bonded alkenyloxy group in a molecule in the presence of a platinum catalyst.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for cross-linking radically cross-linkable polymers and for stabilizing such polymers against oxidative and/or thermal decomposition. The method is developed so that rapid and economical cross-linking of radically cross-linkable polymers is obtained in the presence of oxidation inhibitors without adverse effects on the cross-linking process due to the oxidation inhibitor. For this purpose, the invention provides that the cross-linking is carried out in the presence of oxidation inhibitors, wherein the inhibition-active --OH and/or --NH functions are at least partially substituted by protective silyl- and/or silylene groups, the inhibitor molecule containing at least one Si-alkenyl group. The method according to the invention is suitable for use with radical as well as radiation-cross-linkable polymer.
