Abstract
Disclosed herein are methods of preparing thermoplastic gels and dry silicone gels with an alkyl ester polydimethylsiloxane having a formula (I): (I) Also disclosed are thermoplastic gels and dry silicone gels prepared by the disclosed methods. In the formula (I), n is about 60% to about 90% of the formula (I); m is about 10% to about 40% of the formula (I); R is —(C═O)—OR; and R is a C-Calkyl group. The alkyl ester polydimethylsiloxane has a weight average molecular weight of about 10,000 g/mol to about 50,000 g/mol. The hardness of the thermoplastic gels is less than 120 g peak load. The hardness of the dry silicone gels is less than 100 g peak load.
