Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a porous silicone body having communicating pores and a three-dimensional network silicone skeleton that forms the pores, wherein the silicone skeleton is formed by polymerization of a bifunctional alkoxysilane and a trifunctional alkoxysilane, and the proportion of unreacted parts in the silicone skeleton is 10 mol % or less. The porous silicone body of the present invention has high flexibility and high heat resistance, and further has excellent recoverability of heat-resistant cushioning properties.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A porous silicone body having communicating pores and a three-dimensional network silicone skeleton that forms the pores, wherein the silicone skeleton is formed by polymerization of a bifunctional alkoxysilane and a trifunctional alkoxysilane, and the proportion of unreacted parts in the silicone skeleton is 10 mol % or less. 2 . The porous silicon body according to claim 1 , having 50% compression set at a test temperature of 150° C. of 5% or less. 3 . The porous silicon body according to claim 1 , having 50% compression set at a test temperature of 250° C. of 10% or less. 4 . A method for producing the porous silicone body according to claim 1 , comprising a step of copolymerizing a bifunctional alkoxysilane and a trifunctional alkoxysilane by a sol-gel reaction involving phase separation to form a porous silicone body having communicating pores and a three-dimensional network silicone skeleton that forms the pores, and a step of heat-treating the porous silicone body at a temperature lower than the thermal decomposition initiation temperature thereof. 5 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the heat treatment is conducted at 100 to 320° C. 6 . The method according to claim 5 , wherein the heat treatment is conducted at 150 to 300° C. 7 . The method according to claim 4 , wherein the heat treatment is conducted for 8 to 120 hours.
