Official abstract text for this publication.
A solid surface comprises (i) from 45 to 80 volume fraction percent of polymethylmethacrylate or unsaturated polyester or a combination of both, (ii) from 25 to 55 volume fraction percent of inorganic filler particles distributed evenly throughout the solid surface, and (iii) from 0.75 to 8 volume fraction percent of a siloxane fluid, wherein, when the filler has a major dimension of from 30-50 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 40,000 to 150,000 or when the filler has a major dimension of from 10-15 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 25,000 to 100,000 or when or when the filler has a major dimension of from 1-10 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 5,000 to 100,000.

What is claimed is: 1 . A solid surface comprising (i) from 45 to 80 volume fraction percent of polymethylmethacrylate or unsaturated polyester or a combination of both, (ii) from 25 to 55 volume fraction percent of inorganic filler particles distributed evenly throughout the solid surface, and (iii) from 0.75 to 8 volume fraction percent of a siloxane fluid wherein, when the filler has a major dimension of from 30-50 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 40,000 to 150,000 or when the filler has a major dimension of from 10-15 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 25,000 to 100,000 or when or when the filler has a major dimension of from 1-10 micrometers, the siloxane has a molecular weight of from 5,000 to 100,000. 2 . The surface of claim 1 wherein the filler is alumina trihydrate, alumina, talc, quartz or a micronized polymer. 3 . The surface of claim 1 wherein the siloxane fluid is a siloxane polymer with hydrocarbon substituents. 4 . The surface of claim 1 wherein the siloxane fluid is coated onto the surface of the filler. 5 . The surface of claim 1 further comprising either alone or in combination, a pigment, a coupling agent or a crosslinker. 6 . The surface of claim 3 wherein the siloxane polymer is polydimethylylsiloxane. 7 . The surface of claim 6 wherein the polydimethylylsiloxane is methyl-terminated polydimethylylsiloxane.
