Abstract
A polymer article is provided that includes a first silicone component formed from (i) a first siloxane polymer comprising a first plurality of hydride-functional groups and (ii) a second siloxane polymer comprising a first plurality of vinyl-functional groups. The polymer article also includes a second silicone component formed from (i) a third siloxane polymer comprising a second plurality of hydride-functional groups and (ii) a fourth siloxane polymer comprising a second plurality of vinyl-functional groups. Lastly, the polymer includes a contact interface, between the first and second silicone components, comprising chemical crosslinks between the first siloxane polymer and the fourth siloxane polymer. Notably, a tensile strength of the polymer article across the contact interface is substantially equal to a tensile strength of the first silicone component or the second silicone component alone.
