Fillers can also be used to promote or enhance the thermal stability of the silicone adhesive. Normal silicone systems can withstand exposure to temperatures of 200 C for long hours without degradation. However, in some applications the silicone must withstand exposure to temperatures of 280 C. This can be achieved by adding thermal stabilizers to the adhesive formulations. These are mainly composed of metal oxides such as iron oxide and cerium oxide, copper organic complexes, or carbon black. The mechanisms by which the thermal stabilization occurs are discussed in terms of radical chemistry.

It is interesting to see that few model studies (Table 2) have considered copper-organic interactions (Dyrssen and Wedborg, 1979 Mantoura et al., 1978 a Zuehlke and Kester, 1983), although their appreciable concentrations in seawater seems to be well documented. Various attempts have been made to improve the knowledge on trace metal -organic interactions.

The strength of the copper-organic bond and the well-established dual potential of copper as a biological stimulant or inhibitor has led to many studies of the effect of copper speciation on growth. A few of these studies, showing that strong organic... 

There may be a variety of metal ions in the zinc site (Fig. 25). The most important substitution (for spectroscopic studies) is that of zinc by cobalt 189). The coordination chemistry of cobalt is similar to that of zinc and the derivative is quite similar to the native enzyme. The affinity of zinc and other metal ions 173, 190) for the zinc site at pH > 7.5 increases when copper(II) is bound to SOD. It seems that copper organizes the zinc site. Indeed, CU2E2 transforms into CU2CU2 and E2E2SOD at pH higher than 7 173).
