Method of fabricating an article containing a cured polymer wherein unwanted continued polymerization with aging of a polymer, e.g., a silicone gel, which was catalytically cured, is prevented, and articles made therefrom. The method comprises treating the cured polymer so as to deactivate the catalytic agent or to stabilize the cured resin. The articles of interest include those containing the resin (gel) in a supporting member, such as a touch sensitive screen or a prosthesis for implanting into a body. |
