Abstract:

A silicone composition having a continuous phase of a polar organic liquid including particles of a silicone active material encapsulated within an organic encapsulating material which is a solid at 25Â C. The silicone active material is sparingly soluble in the polar organic liquid at 25Â C. , but is substantially dissolved in the polar organic liquid at temperatures of from 40 to 100Â C. The three phase contact angle between the organic encapsulating material, the silicone antifoam, and the polar organic liquid is below 130Â C. , with the angle measured through the silicone.

B05D 3/02

US Classification:

427140, 427142, 427299, 427387, 525100

Abstract:

A coating composition, particularly a clearcoat composition, which may be a two-component clearcoat composition, comprises a film-forming material, a crosslinking agent, and a nonlinear polysiloxane polymer having a functional group reactive with the crosslinking agent. The coating composition exhibits excellent scratch resistance and adhesion of repair coating layers and sealants, such as windshield sealants.

Appl. No.:

10/256670

Inventors:

Kenneth Fey - Midland MI, US
James Habermehl - Midland MI, US

International Classification:

C09K003/00

US Classification:

516/013000

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a dispersible silicone composition comprising a blend of (I) a silicone composition prepared by reacting (i) a polyorganosiloxane, (ii) a silicon compound, and (iii) a catalytic amount of a compound for promoting the reaction of the other components and (II) a polyisobutylene compound. The polyisobutylene oligomer or polyisobutylene polymer is effective as a dispersing agent for the silicone composition (I). The polyisobutylene-containing compositions are easier to handle, produce less waste, and their dispersion into mineral oil formulations is more efficient.
