A curable silicone composition comprising: n (A) an organopolysiloxane having at least two silicon-bonded aliphatic unsaturated hydrocarbon radicals in its molecule; n (B) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane having at least three silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in its molecule; n (C) a platinum family metal catalyst; and n (D) a nonionic surface active agent having a hydrophobic silicone portion and at least one hydrophilic polyol portion in its molecule. The curable silicone composition gives cured products having good hydrophilic properties and dimensional stability, and are especially suitable for use as a dental impression material. |
