Abstract:
A self-adhering polyolefin composition comprisingA. a polyolefin wherein each molecule contains at least two ethylenically unsaturated substituents capable of reacting to cure said polyolefin; andB. an effective amount of an adhesion promoter for said polyolefin;wherein the adhesion promoter comprises(B1) at least one compound containing at least one epoxide group, wherein said compound B1 is selected from the group consisting of organic compounds and organosilicon compounds; and(B2) at least one compound containing a) at least one substituent selected from the group consisting of silanol (.dbd.SiOH), hydrolyzable silanol precursors and carbinol (.dbd.COH) and (b) at least one substituent capable of reacting during curing of said polyolefin;and wherein all compounds corresponding to compound B1 constitute from 10 to 90 percent of the combined weight of all compounds corresponding to compounds B1 and B2.
