Novel acetylene-terminated silicone monomers with (a) silane (Si--H) functionalities, (b) silanol (Si--OH) functionalities, or (c) (alpha,omega)phenylethynyl terminated siloxanes, and a novel synthetic route. The (alpha,omega)phenylethynyl-terminated siloxane monomers are prepared, starting with 1,3-bromobenzene, which is converted to 3-TMS-ethynylbromobenzene, where TMS represents the trimethylsilyl group, by reacting 1,3-dibromobenzene with trimethylsilylacetylene and triethylamine in the presence of a palladium catalyst. The 3-bromo-TMS protected phenyl acetylene is then reacted with an alkyllithium compound, such as n-butyllithium, or with magnesium to form the corresponding lithio or Grignard compound, respectively, followed by reaction with a halogenated compound, such as chlorodimethylsilane, to form 3-trimethylsilyl-ethynylphenyldimethyl silane. Next, the TMS protected ethynylphenyl silane is subjected to deprotection and methanolysis of the Si--H bond to form 3-ethynylphenyldimethyl methoxy silane, employing methanol. This silane is then hydrolyzed to form the corresponding silanol. Finally, the silanol is then condensed by known methods to form the disiloxane. The disiloxane monomer can be reacted with a cyclic siloxane, having .gtoreq.3 silicon atoms, each independently substituted with hydrogen, C.sub.1 to C.sub.6 alkyl, phenyl, or phenyl substituted with one or more alkyl or halogen groups, to form oligomers. Both monomers and oligomers form thermoset polymers by heating to a temperature of at least about 250.degree. C.

Epoxy end-capped oligomers of 1,3-diolefin compounds of Formula I ##STR1## These oligomers are formed by: (a) reacting a 1,3-diolefin compound having 4 to 12 carbon atoms per molecule with a difunctional initiator comprising anionic reactive sites to form an intermediate living oligomer comprising two anionic end groups; and(b) reacting the intermediate living oligomer with a halohydrin compound to epoxidize the two anionic end groups and form the desired oligomer.The oligomers are subsequently reacted with an epoxidizing agent to form a polymer having epoxy-derived linkages at regular intervals along the chain of the polymer.

A family of adhesives is provided for bonding cyanate ester composite articles together which is also plateable with metal once chemically etched. The adhesives comprise a polymeric matrix and a filler of metal powder or metal flakes. The polymeric matrix comprises at least one polyepoxide resin and at least one curing agent. In practice, the present adhesive is applied to the surface of cyanate ester composite articles to be bonded and is allowed to cure in air at a temperature less than 125° C. Thereafter, the surface of the assembly is chemically etched and then plated with metal. The present adhesives enable the complete coverage of the cyanate ester composite assembly with the plated metal, including the adhesive bondlines. A cyanate ester resin structure assembled with the present adhesive composition may, upon plating, replace certain metallic components in such applications as aircraft, spacecraft, and automobiles given its highly conductive and comprehensive metallic coating.

A fluxless solder for application to metal surfaces which include contaminants such as metal oxides. The fluxless solder includes a reducing agent which reacts with interfering metal oxides to form essentially inert compounds which require no further cleaning. Reducing agents, such as lithium, calcium, strontium and cesium are disclosed for use in lead-tin solders, in amounts ranging from about 0.5 to 10 atom percent. Various methods for forming the fluxless solder are also disclosed.

A resin composition for investment casting contains a moderate boiling temperature liquid inert diluent, having a boiling point in the range of about 200.degree. to 300.degree. C. The presence of the liquid inert diluent allows the resin to be used as a pattern, or model, in investment casting by preventing breaking of the mold during burnout of the resin. Any of the conventional resins suitable for stereolithography may be employed in the practice of the invention. To the resin is added a moderate boiling point solvent in the amount of about 5 to 30 wt %. Use of the moderate boiling point solvent in conjunction with the resin allows the pattern to shrink and crack at moderate temperature before final burnout. The shrinkage occurs faster and at a lower temperature as compared to the prior art.

An improved process is provided for making optical limiters having a graded axial distribution of a reverse saturable absorber compound, such as a buckminsterfullerene, in a host matrix, such as polymethyl methacrylate or polycarbonate. The process of the invention includes: (a) dissolving the reverse saturable absorber and the host matrix in a suitable solvent to form a solution having a preselected ratio of reverse saturable absorber to host matrix; (b) casting the solution onto a surface to form a film; (c) evaporating the solvent to form a free-standing film; (d) performing steps (a)-(c) for each different desired ratio of reverse saturable absorber to host matrix; (e) stacking the free-standing films in a desired order; and (f) hot-pressing the stack to form the optical limiter having a graded distribution of the reverse saturable absorber in the host matrix. If desired, the stack of films can be placed in a die for hot-pressing. The films can be pre-cut to the shape of the die.
