Organosilicon compounds each having in a molecule (A) a perfluoroalkyl
group of at least 3 carbon atoms which may be separated by an etheric
oxygen atom, (B) a monovalent hydrocarbon group containing a carboxylic
acid anhydride structure, and (C) a hydrosilyl (SiH) group are novel and
added to thermosetting elastomer compositions as adhesion aids whereby the
compositions are improved in adhesion to various materials including
metals, alloys, plastics, and ceramics.
