Abstract
Thermoplastic vulcanizates are described which include a carbonyl containing or carbonyl functionalized rubber crosslinked with a hydrosilylation crosslinking agent activated with a platinum containing catalyst. The carbonyl containing or carbonyl functionalized rubber facilitates making thermoplastic vulcanizates with higher lubricity, better contact clarity and alternative surface properties.
