Notes:
We describe here the preparation and properties of a novel curing system, which has been derived from an SiH-containing organic oligomer 1 and an allyloxy end-blocked organic oligomer 2. The composition of these oligomers could be crosslinked via a platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction, that is, the addition reaction of the SiH bonds of 1 to the allyl functionality of 2, above 100°C, yields a rubbery material in a short period of time. The compatibility of the SiH-containing oligomer 1 with the allyloxy end-blocked oligomer 2 was governed by the oligomer main chain employed. Hence the SiH-containing oligomer 1 was completely miscible with 2, having the same main chain and, thus, the system yielded a homogeneously cured material. The poly(propylene oxide) curing system 1a/2a was systematically investigated in detail to manifest its curing behavior and crosslink structure. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
