Abstract
The present invention is novel cross-linked organofunctional polysiloxane and organofunctional cyclosiloxane compositions and a process for their preparation. The process for preparation of these siloxane compositions comprises contacting a mixture comprising a poly(organohydrogen)siloxane or a cyclo(organohydrogen)siloxane, a alpha,omega-triene, and a triorganosilyl source with a platinum catalyst, at a temperature within a range of 50.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. The products of this process are cross-linked organofunctional polysiloxanes and cross-linked organofunctional cyclosiloxanes. The triorganosilyl source added to the process provides for control of the amount of cross-linking of the organofunctional polysiloxanes and cyclosiloxanes independent of the level of organofunctionality.
