A curable silicone rubber composition of the type referred to in industry as 'self-adhesive' or as having “selective adhesion” (hereafter referred to as “curable self-adhesive silicone rubber compositions”). The curable self-adhesive silicone rubber compositions comprise: (A) one or more organopolysiloxanes containing at least 2 alkenyl groups and/or alkynyl groups per molecule and having a viscosity in a range of 1000 mPa·s to 200,000 mPa·s at 25° C.; (B) an organopolysiloxane containing at least 2 or 3 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule; (C) at least one hydrosilylation catalyst; (D) at least one reinforcing and optionally one or more non-reinforcing fillers; (E) an adhesion promoter; and (F) an oligomer which has been found to surprisingly provide heat-humidity stabilization.
