[0030] The composition of the present invention can comprise a SiH-functional polysiloxane in addition to the organosilyl-functional polyester. The SiH-functional polysiloxane contains two or more silylhydride (SiH) functionalities. The SiH functionalities can undergo hydrosilylation addition to the terminal CC bonds of the organosilyl-functional polyester to form a crosslinked polymer, preferably a crosslinked elastomer material.

[0036] When present, the silylhydride-functional polysiloxanes are desirably present at a concentration sufficient to provide a molar ratio of SiH groups from the silylhydride-functional polysiloxanes to CC from the organosilyl-functional polyester (SiH:CC molar ratio) that is 0.70 or more, preferably 0.90 or more while at the same time is typically 1.5 or less, preferably 1.0 or less, and more preferably 0.95 or less.

[0037] The composition can comprise a hydrosilylation catalyst. Typically, the hydrosilylation catalyst is any one or any combination of more than one platinum-based hydrosilylation catalyst.

The hydrosilylation catalyst can be part of a solution that includes complexes of platinum with low molecular weight organopolysiloxanes that include 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complexes with platinum. These complexes may be microencapsulated in a resin matrix. The catalyst can be 1,3-diethenyl-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane complex with platinum.

[0038] The concentration of platinum-based hydrosilylation catalyst is typically 5 weight-parts per million (ppm) or more, preferably 10 ppm or more, and can be 25 ppm or more, 50 ppm or more, even 75 ppm or more while at the same time is typically 500 ppm or less, 400 ppm or less, 300 ppm or less, 200 ppm or less and preferably 100 ppm or less and can be 90 ppm or less, 80 ppm or less, 70 ppm or less, 60 ppm or less, even 50 ppm or less based on weight of the composition.

[0039] The present invention includes a process for preparing the organosilyl-functional polyester of the present invention. The process comprises the step of preparing an organosilyl-functional polyester by providing a polyester polyol, a vinyl functional silylating agent and optionally a silylation catalyst and then reacting the vinyl functional silylating agent and polyester polyol together optionally in the presence of a silylation catalyst to silylate the polyester polyol to form the organosilyl-functional polyester.

[0040] Generally, it is desirable to react the vinyl functional silylating agent and polyester polyol together (that is, to conduct the silylation reaction) while mixing at a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius (C) or higher, preferably 50 C. or higher, 75 C. or higher, 100 C. or higher, even 120 C. or higher or 130 C. or higher while at the same time typically 200 C. or lower, preferably 175 C. or lower, 150 C. or lower, even 140 C. or lower, or 130 C. or lower. The reaction proceeds until the silylation of OH groups is either no longer occurring or has reached a point that desirable to stop the reaction. Desirably, the silylation reaction continues until 80 to 100 mole-percent of the OH groups on the polyester polyl are silylated, provided there are multiple silylated OH groups per molecule. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy or Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy is useful for monitoring a reaction mixture to determine extend of OH silylation. When the reaction is complete, it is desirable to cool the reaction mixture down to 23 C.

Typically, the concentration of vinyl functional silylating agent is in a range of 1.5 to 4 moles per mole of polyester polyol.

[0042] The reaction of the polyester polyol and vinyl functional silylating agent can occur in the presence or absence of a silylation catalyst. Desirably, conduct the reaction of the polyester polyol and vinyl functional silylating agent in the presence of a silylation catalyst. Suitable silylation catalysts include acids such as Lewis acids or bases such as Lewis bases. Examples of suitable silylation catalysts include saccharin, imidazole, ammonium chloride, trifluoroacetic acid and ammonium sulfate. Generally, the silylation catalyst is present at a concentration of zero mole-percent (mol %) or more, preferably 0.001 mol % or more, and can be 0.005 mol % or more while at the same time is typically 0.100 mol % or less, or even 0.050 mol % or less, 0.010 mol % or less, or even 0.005 mol % or less relative to moles of polyester polyol.

[0043] The polyester polyol is not limited in the broadest scope of the present invention. Examples of desirably polyester polyols include any one or any combination of more than one polyester polyol having an average chemical structure selected from (IV), (V) and (VI):

##STR00004## [0044] where: [0045] R is independently in each occurrence selected from hydrocarbyl groups having from one to 8 carbon atoms, and can be all the same or can differ from one another. The hydrocarbyl groups can have one or more, two or more, three or more, four or more, 5 or more, 6 or more, even 7 or more while at the same time typically contain 8 or fewer, and can contain 7 or fewer, 6 or fewer, 5 or fewer, 4 or fewer, 3 or fewer, even 2 or fewer carbon atoms. Desirably, the R groups are selected from a group consisting of methyl, ethyl, propyl and phenyl groups. [0046] Subscript m independently in each occurrence has an average value in a range of one to 8, and preferably has a value of 2 or more and can have a value of 3 or more, 4 or more, 5 or more, 6 or more, even 7 or more, while at the same time typically has a value of 8 or less, 7 or less, 6 or less, 5 or less, 4 or less, 3 or less, even 2 or less.

[0048] Subscript o has an average value in a range of 2 to 10. Subscript o can have a value of 2 or more, 3 or more, 4 or more, 5 or more, 6 or more, 7 or more, 8 or more, even 9 or more, while at the same time typically has a value of 10 or less, 9 or less, 8 or less, 7 or less, 6 or less, 5 or less, 4 or less, even 3 or less.

[0051] Add the polyester polyol, vinyl functional silylating agent and catalyst to a 500 milliliter (mL) round bottom flask. Add a polytetrafluorethylene stir bar and purge the flask and contents with nitrogen, sealing with a septum. Heat the contents using a heating plate to the reaction temperature while stirring for the reaction time. Allow the mixture to cool to 23 C. and remove residual vinyl functional silylating agent under vacuum (1.3 kilopascals) at 130 C. for 2 hours to obtain the resulting organosilyl-functional polyester.

[0052] Characterize the resulting organosilyl-functional polyester by proton (.sup.1H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Dissolve a 10 milligram sample of organosilyl-functional polyester in 0.6 milliliters of deuterated benzene (d6-benzene) and analyze using a 400 Megahertz Varian .sup.1H NMR spectrometer. Use a 5 second acquisition time and a relaxation delay time of 15 seconds. Collect 16 scans and average to get resulting spectrum. Reference resulting spectrum to benzene at 7.16 ppm. Regions for the groups of interest in the spectra are: vinyl region (V) integrated from 5.6-6.5 ppm; methylene region adjacent to hydroxyl (O) integrated over 4.2-4.3 ppm to determine hydroxyl substitution. 2.1-2.3 ppm to account for methylene region adjacent to ester region (E) and methyl region at 0.15-0.3 ppm to account for silylation (S). Set integration based on number of repeat units along backbone of polyester polymer: for Polyester 1 normalize region E to 16; for Polyester 2 normalize region E to 30, and for Polyester 3 normalize region E to 24. Calculate mol % OH substitution as the integration from the region corresponding to V divided by the theoretical vinyl integration based on the OH per polyester polyol. The theoretical vinyl integration Polyester 1 and 2 is 6 and Polyester 3 is 16.5. Use the following calculations:

[00001]$\mathrm{Mol}\%OH\mathrm{Substitution}=\left[\left(V\right)/\left(OH\mathrm{per}\mathrm{polyester}\mathrm{poly}\right)*3\right]*100\%$$\mathrm{Wt}.\%\mathrm{Vinyl}=\left[\mathrm{molecular}\mathrm{weight}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{vinyl}\mathrm{group}\right]*\left[\mathrm{Mol}\%OH\mathrm{Substitution}\right]/\left[\mathrm{MW}/OH\mathrm{of}\mathrm{Polyester}\right]\mathrm{where}\mathrm{MW}/OH\mathrm{of}\mathrm{Polyester}1\mathrm{and}2\mathrm{is}1000\mathrm{and}\mathrm{Polyester}3\mathrm{is}260.$$\mathrm{Vinyl}\mathrm{Groups}\mathrm{per}\mathrm{Polyester}=\left[\mathrm{Mol}\%OH\mathrm{substitution}\right]*\left[OH\mathrm{per}\mathrm{Polyester}\right]\mathrm{where}OH\mathrm{per}\mathrm{polyester}\mathrm{is}2\mathrm{for}\mathrm{Polyesters}1\mathrm{and}2\mathrm{and}\mathrm{is}5.5\mathrm{for}\mathrm{Polyester}3.$
