Abstract
Brake fluids containing at least 80 percent by weight based on the weight of the brake fluids of an organopolysiloxane containing triorganosiloxy endblocking units, diorganosiloxane units and from 0.5 to 20 mole percent of units of the formula R'SiO.sub.2/3' where R' represents the same or different monovalent aryl, alkaryl or aralkyl radicals or halogenated monovalent aryl, alkaryl or aralkyl radicals, in which at least 99 percent of the number of silicon valences are saturated by hydrocarbon radicals, halogenated hydrocarbon radicals, cyanoalkyl radicals or siloxane oxygen atoms.
Claims5
A brake fluid containing an organopolysiloxane having
- (a) from 30 to 98 mole percent of units of the formula R.sub.2 SiO,
- (b) from 0.5 to 20 mole percent of units of the formula R'SiO.sub.3/2,
- (c) from 0.1 to 20 mole percent of units of the formula R.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2,
- (d) from 0 to 20 mole percent of units of the formula RSiO.sub.3/2 and
- (e) from 0 to 10 mole percent of units of the formula R'SiO,
- in which R is selected from the group consisting of monovalent, aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals, halogenated monovalent aliphatic hydrocarbon radicals and cyanoalkyl radicals, R' is selected from the group consisting of monovalent aryl, alkaryl and aralkyl radicals and halogenated monovalent aryl, alkaryl and aralkyl radicals, in which at least 99 percent of the number of the silicon valences are saturated by radicals selected from the group consisting of R, R' and siloxane oxygen atoms and the sum of the mole percentages of (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) is equal to 100.
