An aromatic acid is mixed with a flame-retardant silicone elastomer composition to further increase the flame retardancy of the composition. For example, a flame-retardant silicone composition comprising a polydiorganosiloxane gum, a reinforcing silica filler, a platinum-containing material, a flame-retardant additive such as titanium dioxide, an alcohol-producing organic peroxide such as 2,5-bis(tertiary butyl peroxy)-2,5-dimethylhexane and an aromatic acid such as 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid has better flame retardancy in the cured state than does a similar composition having no aromatic acid added. |
