Abstract

Heat-vulcanizable silicone elastomer compositions, well adopted for conversion into mechanically strong flame-retardant protective sheathings/coatings for, e.g., electrical wires and cables, comprise (a) at least one polydiorganosiloxane polymer, (b) a reinforcing filler material and (c) a vulcanizing agent, e.g., an organic peroxide, therefor, and including a fireproofing and mechanical strength-enhancing amount of (d) mica and (e) zinc oxide.
