Abstract: Pentachlorophenyl 3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl ether and its use as a mildewcide in latex paints.

Abstract: Siloxane copolymer mixtures comprising a minor amount of certain high molecular weight (e.g., 4000 to 30,000) siloxane-oxyalkylene copolymers and a major amount of certain low molecular weight (e.g., 300 to 1100) siloxane-oxyalkylene copolymers or cyanoalkylsiloxanes in specifically defined mixture ratios; a process for producing high resilience polyurethane foam utilizing as a foam stabilizer said siloxane copolymer mixtures; and the foams derived therefrom.

Abstract: Addition to organosilicon compounds having at least one alkyl group attached to a silicon atom, at least one hydrogen atom being attached to the carbon atom adjacent the silicon atom, of a fluorocompound, which may be a fluoroolefin, a perfluoroketone, or a perfluoroether having a carbon-carbon double bond in .alpha.-position to the ether oxygen atom, give fluorine-containing organosilicon compounds. These adducts may be liquid or solid and are useful as (1) lubricants and sealants for automotive and aerospace industries (2) fire-resistant hydraulic fluids, and (3) siloxane elastomers having good oil and lubricant resistance.

Abstract: Homopolymers and copolymers of compounds according to the formula: ##STR1## wherein R is an alkyl having 1 to 3 carbons, a+b+c+d=e, b=O to e, c=O to e, b+c>1, d=0 to 5, e=1 to 100, and Y is an organic group containing at least one>C.dbd.C<are hydrophilic as well as exhibiting properties similar to silicone compounds. The polymers are particularly useful in contact lenses having enhanced oxygen permeability.

Abstract: The process for producing mineral fillers with graft peroxy groups for polymers according to the present invention comprises treatment of mineral fillers, at a temperature of from 50 to 150.degree. C. under a pressure of from 1.33.10.sup.2 to 4.10.sup.5 Pa (lmmHg to 4 atm), with an organosilicon compound of the formula:R.sub.4-y SiX.sub.y or R'R.sub.3-z SiX.sub.z, whereinR is vinyl, allyl, norbornyl,X is chlorine, an alkoxy or acyloxy,y=1-3,z=1-2,R' is methyl, ethyl, propyl,whereafter the mineral filler containing graft unsaturated groups is separated from the reaction mixture, dried and ozonized with an ozone-oxygen mixture containing 4 to 6 vol.% of ozone at a temperature of from -40.degree. to +20.degree. C.The process for producing mineral fillers with graft peroxy groups for polymers is technologically simple and makes it possible to perform extending and grafting of a polymer at lower temperatures (50.degree.-140.degree. C.).

Abstract: Organosilanes containing aliphatic double bonds and a process for preparing the same which comprises reacting an organic compound having more than one aliphatic double bond with a silane having an Si-bonded hydrogen atom and at least one hydrolyzable group and/or at least one group capable of being hydrolyzed more readily than the Si-bonded hydrogen atom in the presence of a catalyst which promotes the addition of Si-bonded hydrogen atoms to aliphatic double bonds.These organosilanes are used as reinforcing agents for compositions containing organic polymers which are crosslinked by means of sulfur or free radicals.
