Deskripsi

Several strategies have been explored for overcoming limitations on the ultimate extensibility and softness of silicone elastomers but they either increase process complexity or lead to mechanical instabilities in the resulting elastomers. Here the authors report an easy curing reaction which allows versatile tailoring of elastomer properties exceeding their intrinsic limitations
