Abstract

Abstract A novel composition is disclosed which contains a silicone polymer, a non-silicone polymer other than polytetrafluoroethylene and a chemically treated filler. The non-silicone polymer may be an elastomer or a thermoplastic such as a polyolefin, a copolymer containing an olefin, a halogen-containing polymer or copolymer or a copolymer of fluorine-containing polymers other than polytetrafluoroethylene. The filler is an inorganic silicon-containing compound having a surface area of at least 40 square meters per gram which has been treated with a substituted silane. The treated filler is first blended with the non-silicone polymer and this compound is then mixed with the silicone polymer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 119 words
A process for the manufacture of a composition comprising a silicone polymer, a non-silicone polymer other than polytetrafluoroethylene and a chemically treated filler, the chemically treated filler being a filler comprising an inorganic silicone-containing compound containing the Si--O--Si group and having a specific surface area (measured by the BET method) of at least 40 square meters per gram, which filler has been treated with at least one silane having bonded to each silicon atom thereof at least one organic group bonding through a silicon-carbon bond, which process comprises: a. blending said non-silicone polymer, said silane and said filler to form a blend of said non-silicone polymer and said treated filler; and blending the resulting blend with said silicone polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 119 words
A process for the manufacture of a composition comprising a silicone polymer, a non-silicone polymer other than polytetrafluoroethylene and a chemically treated filler, the chemically treated filler being a filler comprising an inorganic silicone-containing compound containing the Si--O--Si group and having a specific surface area (measured by the BET method) of at least 40 square meters per gram, which filler has been treated with at least one silane having bonded to each silicon atom thereof at least one organic group bonding through a silicon-carbon bond, which process comprises: a. blending said non-silicone polymer, said silane and said filler to form a blend of said non-silicone polymer and said treated filler; and blending the resulting blend with said silicone polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 21 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said filler is treated with said silane prior to said blending with said non-silicone polymer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the said non-silicone polymer is first blended with said filler and this blend is treated with said silane.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 78 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said silicone polymer is selected from the group consisting of polydimethyl siloxane and a copolymer of dimethyl siloxane with up to 5 % by weight based on the weight of the dimethyl siloxane of methyl vinyl siloxane, and the non-silicone polymer is selected from the group consisting of a blend of an ethylene/ethyl acrylate copolymer and an ethylene/propylene/ethylidene norbornene terpolymer and a blend of low density polyethylene and an ethylene/ethyl acrylate copolymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 9 words
The composition produced by the process of claim 1.
