Abstract
A silicone gel composition comprising: (A) 100 parts by weight of an organopolysiloxane containing at least two alkenyl groups per molecule and having a viscosity of 0.01 to 100 Pa.s at 25.degree. C.; (B) an organopolysiloxane containing at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule and having a viscosity of 0.001 to 10 Pa.s at 25.degree. C. in an amount sufficient to provide from 0.2 to 5 moles of silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per one mole of alkenyl groups in component (A); (C) 0.01 to 15 parts by weight of a silica powder having a specific surface area of at least 50 m.sup.2 /g; (D) 0.0001 to 1.0 part by weight of a diamine compound represented by the following general formula: R.sup.1.sub.2 N--R.sup.2 --NR.sup.1.sub.2 wherein each R.sup.1 is independently a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and R.sup.2 is an alkylene group having 2 to 4 carbon atoms; and (E) a hydrosilylation catalyst in a catalytic quantity; wherein the weight ratio of component (D) to component (C) in said gel composition is from 0.0005 to 0.05; and the silicone gel composition cures to form a silicone gel having a loss elastic modulus at 25.degree. C. and at a shear frequency of 0.1 Hz of from 1.0.times.10.sup.2 to 1.0.times.10.sup.4 Pa, and a complex modulus of elasticity less than 1.0.times.10.sup.5 Pa.
