Abstract
A stable dispersion of a finely divided solid such as a pigment in an organosiloxane composition can be prepared as a homogeneous thixotropic liquid, paste or gel by blending the solid with a finely divided, partially treated silica, a specified class of liquid diorganosiloxane/oxyalkylene copolymers and, as a diluent, at least one liquid organosiloxane oligomer having a density lower than the density of the dispersed solid. The gels and pastes convert to flowable liquids when subjected to shearing forces.
