Synthetic method for preparing dual curable silicone compositions

摘要

A synthetic method for preparing dual curable (e.g., thermal and light curable) silicone compositions is provided. The first step being a chemical modification of silanichydride bonds in cyclic siloxane monomer by the hydrosilylation reaction with acrylate-/methacrylate-containing allylic monomer. The second step being a ring-opening polymerization of the acrylate-/methacrylate-functionalized cyclic siloxane monomer with siloxane monomers using an oligosiloxane as a chain terminator.
