Abstract
Heat-resistant, polyorganosiloxane elastomers are prepared by reacting a linear, difunctional polyorganosiloxane with a silicon-containing crosslinking agent and a stannous salt of a monoethylenically unsaturated monohydroxy monocarboxylic acid as the curing catalyst. A filler can optionally be included in the formulation. The present catalysts are unique in that they impart a relatively long working life to the uncured composition yet do not catalyze the depolymerization reaction at elevated temperatures as do conventional organotin catalysts such as dibutyltin dilaurate.
