Abstract
This invention is a silicone oil gel composition which is comprised of a silicone block copolymer selected from the group consisting of polyethylene-polydimethylsiloxane block copolymers and polyethylene-polydimethylsiloxane-polydiphenylsiloxane block copolymers wherein the overall number average molecular weight ranges from 1000 to 21,000, preferably 1000 to 6000. The polyethylene blocks have a number average molecular weight of 400 to 3000, preferably 400 to 1500, the polydimethylsiloxane blocks have a number average molecular weight of 600 to 20,000, preferably 600 to 10,000, and the polydiphenylsiloxane blocks have a number average molecular weight of 200 to 2000, preferably 600 to 1200, wherein the block copolymer is dissolved in a silicone oil which is a polydimethylsiloxane polymer having a number average molecular weight of from 1000 to 1,000,000, preferably 4000 to 30,000.
