A novel ultraviolet (UV)‐curable monomer α,ω‐dichloropolysiloxane was synthesized by the telomerization of dichlorodimethylsilane and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D 4 ). The products with very low peel strength (<0.332 N/cm) could be used as release agents in pressure‐sensitive adhesives. Moreover, the values of the dispersion component of surface energy (γ s d ) from the films of UV‐curable prepolymers (26.40–33.75 mJ/m 2 ) were determined and the effects of γ s don the reduction of adhesion were investigated. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
