A curable composition, having utility for threadlocking engageable members of a threaded mechanical fastener, comprising: a reactive silicone (meth)acrylate emulsified in an aqueous medium, optionally further comprising a polymerizable non-silicone (meth)acrylate monomer or oligomer; and a microencapsulated peroxy initiator which is initiatingly effective for cure of the reactive silicone (meth)acrylate. The curable composition may be usefully employed for adhesively bonding engageable structural parts, by applying the aqueous emulsion of the reactive silicone (meth)acrylate, containing a microencapsulated peroxy initiator, to at least a portion of an engagement surface of a matable part which is matably engageable with a complimentary engagement structure, to yield an emulsion-coated engagement surface, drying the emulsion-coated engagement surface to form a dried coating thereon; and thereafter engaging the surface having the dried coating thereon, with the complimentary engagement structure, to release the microencapsulated peroxy initiator and bond the matable part and complimentary engagement structure.

1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a silicone composition useful for adhesively fixturing matably engageable structural elements, such as in threadlocking of bolt/nut assemblies, so that the structural elements are adhesively bonded and sealed upon their being engaged in a final interlocked state.
2. Description of the Related Art
The invention is more fully described hereinafter with reference to the following non-limiting examples, wherein all parts and percentages are by weight, unless otherwise expressly stated.
Examples 1-4 illustrate the preparation of various reactive silicone (meth)acrylate resins which may be usefully employed to formulate corresponding threadlocking compositions in the practice of the present invention.
A reactive silicone (meth)acrylate resin, hereafter referred to as Resin A, was synthesized by the following procedure.
