They exhibit extremely low shrinkage and high physical properties. Description of the platinum chemical reaction that forms silicone rubber. Silicone rubbers are often one or two part polymers and may contain fillers to improve properties or reduce cost. The curing agents differ chemically to give the end product in this case silicone different properties.
The silicone industry extensively uses the platinum catalysed hydrosilation reaction in which a silicon hydrogen si h bond is added across an unsaturated carbon carbon double bond c c of an olefin resulting in the formation of a silicon carbon si c bond.
