A silicone rubber composition for textile coating is disclosed. The silicone rubber composition comprises: (A) an organopolysiloxane having at least two alkenyl groups in a molecule and having a viscosity at 25&#xb0; C. of from 100 to 1000000 mPa&#xb7;s; (B) an organopolysiloxane represented by an average unit formula described herein; (C) a hydrosilylation catalyst; (D) a reinforcing silica fine powder; (E) an organotitanium compound and/or an organozirconium compound; and (F) an alkoxysilane having an epoxy group and/or an alkoxysilane having a methacryl group or an acryl group. The silicone rubber composition generally reduces formation and/or expansion of openings even when a large tension is applied to a textile coated with the silicone rubber composition. A silicone rubber-coated textile and method of formation are also disclosed.

The introduction of a clay-like organopolysiloxane composition that is highly qualified for application as a clay-like material for manual arts and crafts and handicrafts (children's modelling clay, handicraft clay, etc.) and that does not deteriorate with time, is highly workable, is freely deformable by the application of low stresses, and, once formed, can preserve its shape while in the quiescent state.

A method for fabricating foam gaskets is characterized in that during the separate transport and subsequent mixing in an enclosed chamber of the base and curing agent portions of a two part foamable and curable organosiloxane composition an inert gas is injected in the amount of from 1 to 50 mL per 100 g of the total curable organosiloxane composition. The gas is injected into either the base portion, the curing agent or during or immediately after mixing of the two portions, and the resultant foamable composition is then extruded from a nozzle onto the seal region of the substrate and cured while foaming.

The compression set values of elastomers prepared from organosiloxane compositions that cure by a platinum-catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction are substantially reduced by the presence in said compositions of a phthalocyanine compound or a metal derivative of such a compound, where the metal is copper, nickel, cobalt or iron.
