• These compositions are sometimes called EVF-1 for one-component cold vulcanizable elastomer.
• the formulations of the cold-vulcanizable elastomers by polycondensation generally involve a silicone oil, generally polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), with hydroxyl endings, optionally pre-functionalized with a silane so as to have Si (OR) 3 ends, a crosslinking agent R b Si (OR ') 4-b> where b ⁇ 3, a polycondensation catalyst, typically a tin salt or an alkyl titanate, a reinforcing filler and any other additives such as fillers, adhesion promoters , dyes, biocides, etc.
