Abstract

Powdered, cured silicone rubber in the form of microfine particles is prepared by emulsifying a curable liquid silicone rubber composition in a mixture of water and a surfactant at a temperature of from 0 to 25 degrees C., dispersing the curable composition in water heated to a temperature of at least 25 degrees C. and recovering the resultant cured particles. The liquid silicone rubber composition is preferably maintained at a temperature of from -60 to 0 degrees C. before being emulsified.
