INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
[0001] The present invention relates to siloxane oligomers, a process for their production as well as their use.
[0002] It is known to employ silanes as coupling agents. Thus, aminoalkyltrialkoxysilanes, methacryloxyalkyltrialkoxysilanes, polysulfanalkyltrialkoxysilanes, as well as mercaptoalkyltrialkoxysilanes are used as coupling agents between inorganic materials (e.g. glass fibres, metals, oxidic fillers) and organic polymers (e.g. thermosetting plastics, thermoplastic materials, elastomers) and / or as crosslinking agents and surface modification agents.
[0003] These coupling or bonding agents form bonds with the filler as well as the elastomer and thereby produce a good interaction between the filler surface and the elastomer. They reduce the viscosity of the mixture and facilitate the dispersion of the filler.
[0004] Furthermore it is known that the use of commercially available silane coupling agents (DE 22 55 577) with three alkoxy substituents on the ...
