Abstract
Abstract A room temperature vulcanizable silicone rubber composition is prepared by mixing hydroxyl or alkoxyl endblocked polydiorganosiloxane, crosslinking agent containing at least two water-hydrolyzable radicals, namely alkoxy, ketoximo, alkenyloxy, aminoxy, amino, and amido, and a spindle-shaped calcium carbonate. Curing the composition results in a silicone rubber with improved thermal stability.
