A rubber-metal bonded article with an adhesion promoter in the rubber selected from neoalkoxy zirconates and polyimides. Articles requiring compressed rubber exhibit improved retention of compressive strain after assembly of the article and activation of the adhesion promoter. Also claimed is a method wherein a rubber composition may be fully cured, then assembled between two substrates under compression, then the adhesion promoter activated to form the bond.

An article may include a substrate including a ceramic or a ceramic matrix composite. The substrate defines a hot side surface configured to face a heated gas environment and a cool side surface opposite the hot side surface. The article also includes a cool side coating on the cool side surface. The cool side coating comprises at least one material having a flow temperature equal to or slightly less than a temperature of the heated gas environment.

The present invention relates to a coating resin composition comprising a siloxane resin chemically bonded by compounds including an alkoxy silane containing epoxy or acrylic in the chemical structure; a dialkoxysilane of a silane D structure; or a trialkoxy silane of a silane T structure, and to a coating film comprising a cured article of the resin composition as a coating layer.
