Abstract:
Methods for preparing silicone-containing polymers by essentially adiabatic polymerization methods are disclosed. The polymerization system includes free radically polymerizable monomers. The monomers include ethylenically unsaturated silicone-containing monomers and/or mercapto-functional silicones as well as additional free radically polymerizable monomers. The silicone-containing polymers are useful as adhesives or release materials.

Claim (Index 1):
A method comprising:\n providing a first reaction mixture comprising:\n an ethylenically unsaturated silicone-containing monomer; \n at least one additional ethylenically unsaturated monomer; \n a chain transfer agent; and \n a thermal initiator; \n deoxygenating the first reaction mixture; heating the first reaction mixture to a temperature above the activation temperature of the thermal initiator; allowing the first reaction mixture to polymerize under essentially adiabatic conditions to yield an at least partially polymerized mixture; cooling the at least partially polymerized mixture; adding an additional thermal initiator, and a chain transfer agent to the partially polymerized mixture to form a second reaction mixture; deoxygenating the second reaction mixture; heating the second reaction mixture to a temperature above the activation temperature of the additional thermal initiator; allowing the second reaction mixture to polymerize under essentially adiabatic conditions to form a polymer.
