An organic silicon compound emulsion for quickly imparting excellent water-repellent properties to the surfaces of porous inorganic base materials such as concrete, mortar, and masonry. The emulsion is prepared by the steps of emulsifying a mixture consisting of (A) an organoalkoxysilane, (B) an organopolysiloxane having in its molecule at least 2 alkoxy groups or hydroxyl groups bonded to a silicon atom, (C) an anionic emulsifying agent, and (D) water, and heat aging the emulsion at a temperature below 100&deg; C. In another embodiment, the method comprises the steps emulsifying a mixture of the components (A) to (D) and adding an acidic or alkaline substance to the emulsion. In a third embodiment, the method comprises the steps of forming a mixture consisting of the components (A) to (D), adding an acidic or alkaline substance thereto, and performing the emulsification thereafter.

Method for preparing organic silicon compound emulsion

A novel method for preparing silicone rubber particulates coated with metal oxide microparticles, wherein the metal oxide microparticles are derived from a sol, is disclosed. The silicone rubber particulate so prepared has the advantage of reducing aggregation of the particulate mass. The silicone rubber particulate has particular utility as an additive to organic resins for modifying the properties thereof.

The present invention relates to a water-repellent composition for a vehicle window glass which does not cause corrosion of metal components such as wipers, said composition being prepare by mixing:

Water repellent agent for glass

A silicone-modified water-based coating composition is disclosed wherein a suspension of silicone rubber particles in water is added to a water-based coating composition such that the resulting system is storage-stable and forms a mat film when dried or cured, which film is soft to the touch.

Silicone-modified water-based coating composition

A method for the manufacture of silicone rubber moldings comprises the preparation of a silicone rubber composition by blending an organoperoxide having an activation energy of 25 to 41 kcal/mol into a semicurable organopolysiloxane composition whose main component is organopolysiloxane having organoperoxide-crosslinkable functional groups. The silicone rubber composition is made into a particulate form and heated at a temperature below 100 degrees Centigrade to produce a semicured, particulate molding material which retains the activity of the organoperoxide and which contains residual crosslinkable functional group on the organopolysiloxane. Subsequently a mold is filled with the molding material and the mold material is completely cured at a temperature of at least 100 degrees Centigrade under the application of pressure. The method is particularly useful for automatic molding methods.

Method of manufacturing silicone rubber moldings

One-part organosiloxane composition curable by a platinum-catalyzed hydrosilation reaction contain the catalyst encapsulated within finely divided particles of a cured silicone rubber. The compositions are storage-stable for up to several days at room temperature, yet cure relatively rapidly when heated.
