Among the groups represented by R7 include, for example, alkyl groups having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, e.g., methyl, ethyl, propyl, octyl, and octadecyl, cycloalkyl groups having 5 to 7 ring carbon atoms, e.g., cyclohexyl and cycloheptyl, aryl groups having 6 to 18 carbon atoms, e.g., phenyl, naphthyl, tolyl, xylyl, and combinations of alkyl and aryl groups, e.g., aralkyl groups, such as, benzyl and phenylethyl, and halo-substituted groups thereof, e.g., chloromethyl, chlorophenyl, and dibromophenyl. Preferably, the R7 group is methyl or both methyl and phenyl. The R~ group can also be an unsaturated aliphatic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, such as alkenyl or cycloalkenyl, e.g., vinyl, allyl and cyclohexenyl. When the R7 group is a group with aliphatic lS unsaturation, the silicon compound containing silicon-hydrogen linkages can be reacted with itself to form a polymer.
Among the inorganic compounds which contain silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms and which are useful as reactants in the process of the present invention are included, for example, trichlorosilane, dibromosilane, pentachlorodisilane, pentachlorodisiloxane, and heptachlorotrisilane.
A preferred compound having silicon-bonded hydrogen useful in this invention is a polyorganohydrosiloxane having the general formula:
R~
R ,-Si O-Si - R8 IX
R n 4--wherein each R~ can be the same or different and represents hydrogen, an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 3 to 12 carbon atoms, or a phenyl group, at least one but not more than one-half of all the R8 groups in the siloxane being hydrogen;
m is 0, 1, 2, or 3; and n is a number having an average value from 1 to about 3000.
The hydrosilation composition useful in the synthesis of low molecular weight compounds by the process of the invention can be prepared by mixing about 0.1 to about 10.0 equivalent weights of the compound having silicon-bonded hydrogen with one equivalent weight of the compound having aliphatic unsaturation and then adding an amount of platinum complex catalyst sufficient to catalyze the reaction and an amount of sensitizer sufficient to sensitize the platinum complex upon exposure to actinic radiation having a wavelength from about 400 nm to about 800 nm. The amount of the catalyst can range from about 5 to about 1000 parts by weight, preferably from about 50 to about 500 parts by weight, per 1,000,000 parts by weight of the total composition. The amount of sensitizer can range from about 50 to about 50,000 parts by weight, preferably from about 500 to about 5000 parts by weight, per 1,000,000 parts by weight of total composition.
Known techniques can be used to conduct the hydrosilation reaction. In carrying out a hydrosilation reaction in the practice of this invention, the reactants and catalyst can be introduced into a vessel equipped for stirring, where the mixture is stirred until it is homogenous. If either of the reactants is a solid or is extremely viscous, a solvent can be introduced into the vessel to facilitate uniform mixing of the reactants.
Suitable solvents include aromatic hydrocarbons, such as xylene and toluene, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as hexane and mineral spirits, and halogenated hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzene and trichloroethane. It is desirable that the solvent be transmissive to visible radiation. From about 0.1 to about 10 parts of solvent per part by weight of the combined reactants may be used. The resulting reaction product will generally be sufficiently pure for its intended use. However, it may be desirable to remove the solvent if one has been employed.
The hydrosilation compositions useful in the preparation of higher molecular weight cured siloxane polymers, by the process af this invention, can be prepared by mixing an aliphatically unsaturated polysiloxane and the compound having silicon-bonded hydrogen in such a proportion so as to provide about 0.1 to about 10.0 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per unsaturated group, and then adding from about 5 to about 1000 parts by weight, preferably from about 50 to about 500 parts by weight of platinum complex catalyst and from about 50 to about 50,000 parts by weight, preferably from about 500 to about 5000 parts by weight of sensitizer, per l,000,000 parts by weight of the total composition. The reaction mixture can be mixed, as by stirring, blending, or tumbling, until it is homogenous.
The thoroughly mixed composition can then be applied to a substrate by any suitable means, such as by spraying, dipping, knife coating, curtain coating, roll coating, or the like, and the coating cured by using conventional techniques for providing visible radiation.
It is preferred that curing be conducted by exposing the coated substrate to radiation having a wavelength of about 400 nm to about 800 nm. Depending on the particular silicone formulation, catalyst, sensitizer and intensity of the visible radiation, curing can be accomplished in a period from less than one second to less than 30 minutes.
Any radiation source emitting radiation above about 400 nm can be used. Examples of suitable radiation sources include tungsten halogen lamps, xenon arc lamps, mercury arc lamps, incandescent lamps, and fluorescent lamps.
Particularly preferred sources of visible radiation are tungsten halogen, xenon arc, and mercury arc lamps.
Various additives conventionally included in hydrosilation compositions can be included in the curable compositions, depending on the intended purpose of the composition. Fillers and/or pigments, such as chopped fibers, crushed polymers, talc, clay, titanium dioxide, and fumed silica can be added. soluble dyes, oxidation inhibitors, and/or any material that does not interfere with the catalytic activity of the platinum complex and does not absorb visible light radiation at the absorption wavelength of the sensitizer can be added to the composition.
The shelf life of the curable compositions containing the catalyst and sensitizer can be extended by the addition of a conventional catalyst inhibitor. The amount of catalyst inhibitor can vary from about 1 to about 10 times, or more, the amount of platinum complex, depending on the activity of the particular complex or complex-accelerator used and the shelf life desired for the composition. Greater amounts of inhibitor should be used with the more active complexes, with lesser amounts being used for the less active complexes. Hydrosilation inhibitors are well known in the art and include such compounds as acetylenic alcohols, certain polyolefinic siloxanes, pyridine, acrylonitrile, organic phosphines and phosphites, unsaturated amides, and alkyl maleates.
The hydrosilation compositions of this invention can be applied to the surface of any solid substrate for a variety of purposes. Examples of such substrates include paper, cardboard, wood, cork, plastic such as polyester, nylon, polycarbonate, etc., woven and nonwoven fabric such as cotton, polyester, nylon, etc., metal, glass, and ceramic.
It is often advantageous to prime the surface of non-porous substrates to which the hydrosilation composition is to be applied to improve the adhesion of the composition to the substrate. Many primers and priming techniques (e.g., corona treatment) are described in the art and should be chosen on the basis of the substrate to be used. For example, the epoxy-functional siloxanes as taught in U.S. Patent No. 4,243,718 (Murai, et al) are useful for priming the surface of plastic films such as polyester and polyvinylchloride.

The amount of catalyst inhibitor can vary from about 1 to about 10 times, or more, the amount of platinum complex, depending on the activity of the particular complex or complex-accelerator used and the shelf life desired for the composition. Greater amounts of inhibitor should be used with the more active complexes, with lesser amounts being used for the less active complexes. Hydrosilation inhibitors are well known in the art and include such compounds as acetylenic alcohols, certain polyolefinic siloxanes, pyridine, acrylonitrile, organic phosphines and phosphites, unsaturated amides, and alkyl maleates.
