CURABLE ELASTOMER COMPOSITIONS WITH LOW TEMPERATURE SEALING CAPABILITY

摘要

Curable sealant compositions having low temperature sealing ability improved over convention curable sealing compositions. The composition is flowable and can be cured to a cross linked form to provide cured reaction products that exhibit elastomeric properties. The curable elastomeric sealant composition can include a cross linkable elastomeric oligomer; an initiator or cross-linking agent; a glassy monomer and/or a rubbery monomer; and optionally one or more additives. Cured reaction products of the composition have a single Tg and retain a higher sealing force at low temperatures (but above the cured product Tg) as compared to a curable composition made from the same cross linkable elastomeric oligomer but without the glassy and/or rubbery monomer.
