Abstract Silicone sealants and adhesives are widely used to prevent the ingress of water. However, silicones must normally be cured in air, as excess water inhibits or prevents cure from occurring. It is reported that aqueous solutions of the aliphatic aldehydes glutaraldehyde, glyoxal or, particularly, formaldehyde rapidly react without catalysts with a variety of aminopropyl‐modified silicone polymers to give silicone elastomers, even underwater. These products, whose properties are readily tailored by controlli…
