One reaction to make highly stretchable or extremely soft silicone

An easy curing pathway to silicone elastomers is presented, in which telechelic/multi-hydrosilane functional polydimethylsiloxane in presence of oxygen and water leads to crosslinking. This curing chemistry allows versatility preparing both highly stretchable and extremely soft silicone elastomers.
