“…The methyl groups attached to the Si atoms are sterically undisturbed and can rotate freely; thus, the main polar chain -Si-O-Si- is shielded and in consequence, the intra- and intermolecular interactions are minimized. Therefore, to improve its mechanical properties, high-density cross-linking is necessary [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 ] Driven by the need for regulatory compliance and changing performance requirements, silicone PSAs, based on new silicone chemicals and curing mechanisms, have emerged [ 18 , 23 , 24 ].…”
