Abstract

Blended, release materials containing crosslinked silicones, crosslinked fluorosilicones, and nonfunctional fluorosilicones are described. Articles including release liners and adhesive articles are also described, as are methods of making such blended release materials and articles incorporating them.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A composition comprising a blend of:
(a) a functional, non-fluorinated, silicone polymer comprising at least two ethylenically unsaturated organic groups;
(b) a functional fluorosilicone polymer; and
(c) a nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer, wherein the nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer comprises one or more fluorinated groups having two or more fluorinated carbon atoms, wherein the fluorinated groups of the nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer comprise fluorinated ether groups.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the blend comprises at least 50 weight percent of the functional, non-fluorinated, silicone polymer based on the total weight of (a) and (b).

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the blend comprises at least 3 weight percent of the functional fluorosilicone polymer based on the total weight of (a) and (b).

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the blend comprises at least 1 part by weight of the nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer per 100 parts by weight of (a) and (b).

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein
the functional fluorosilicone polymer comprises at least two ethylenically-unsaturated organic groups; and
the ratio of the vinyl equivalent weight of the functional fluorosilicone polymer over the vinyl equivalent weight of the functional non-fluorinated silicone polymer is at least 1.

6. The composition of claim 5 , wherein the ratio of the vinyl equivalent weight of the functional fluorosilicone polymer to the vinyl equivalent weight of the functional non-fluorinated silicone polymer is from 2 to 20.

7. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the functional fluorosilicone polymer comprises fluorinated groups comprising two or more fluorinated carbon atoms.

8. The composition according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one of a silicone crosslinker and a fluorosilicone crosslinker.

9. The composition according to claim 8 , wherein at least one crosslinker comprises a silicon bonded hydride group.

10. A cured release material comprising the composition according to claim 1 , wherein the functional, non-fluorinated, silicone polymer and the functional fluorosilicone polymer are crosslinked.

11. A composition comprising a blend of:
(a) at least 80 to no greater than 95 weight percent based on the total weight of (a) and (b) of a functional, non-fluorinated, silicone polymer comprising at least two ethylenically-unsaturated groups;
(b) at least 5 to no greater than 20 weight percent based on the total weight of (a) and (b) of a functional fluorosilicone polymer comprising at least two ethylenically-unsaturated groups; and
(c) at least 1 to no greater than 15 parts by weight of a nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer based on 100 parts by weight of (a) and (b), wherein the nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer comprises one or more fluorinated groups having two or more fluorinated carbon atoms, wherein the fluorinated groups of the nonfunctional fluorosilicone polymer comprise fluorinated ether groups.

12. A cured release material comprising the composition according to claim 11 wherein the functional, non-fluorinated, silicone polymer and the functional fluorosilicone polymer are crosslinked.

13. A release liner comprising a substrate and the cured release material according to claim 12 bonded to at least a portion of at least one surface of the substrate.

14. An adhesive article comprising the release liner of claim 13 and a silicone adhesive in contact with at least a portion of at least one surface of the cured release material.
