Abstract:
1. A polymer formulation comprising: a soluble, stable and non-gelled, curable silicon-containing polymer comprising repeat units selected from the structural formulae (III)-(VII) wherein: k, m, n, p and q represent the fraction of repeat units of the silicon-containing polymer that have the structural formula (III), (IV), (V), (VI), and (VII) respectively, provided that: (a) n has a value between 0 and about 0.5; (b) q has a value between 0 and about 0.2; (c) m has a value between 0 and about 0.5; (d) k has a value between 0.05 and 0.95; and (e) p has a value that is less than about 0.1 if a catalyst capable of activating Si—H bonds and a curing agent or functional group are present in the formulation, and less than 0.95 otherwise; R R R
