The present invention generally relates to a resin-linear copolymer and, more specifically, to a silicone resin-linear copolymer, methods of its preparation, and various end use applications thereof.
Silicone resins typically include three-dimensional networks attributable to the presence of T siloxy units (R0SiO3/2) and/or Q siloxy units (SiO4/2), where R0 is a substituent. Properties of silicone resins differ depending on, among other things, their cross-link densities and molar fractions of siloxy units. Increasing the cross-link density generally results in a silicone resin having greater hardness and/or rigidity. For example, T resins typically form cage-like structures, and silica, or glass, consists of Q units.
Silicone polymers are typically linear or partially branched, and include repeating D siloxy units (R02SiO2/2), typically capped with M siloxy units (R03SiO1/2). Silicone polymers are often utilized to prepare silicone gels and elastomers, which are not as rigid or hard as silicone resins due to their lesser crosslink density and absence of three-dimensional networks.
The present invention provides a silicone resin-linear co-polymer. The silicone resin-linear copolymer has a resinous structure (A1) including R1SiO3/2 units, and a linear structure (A2) including repeated R22SiO2/2 units, wherein R1 is a propyl group and each R2 is an independently selected substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbyl group, and wherein the resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2) are bonded together in the silicone resin-linear copolymer via a siloxane bond.
The present invention additionally provides a composition. The composition comprises the (A) silicone resin-linear co-polymer; and (B) a carrier fluid.
Other end uses of the silicone resin-linear copolymer are also disclosed. For example, the silicone resin-linear polymer may be utilized as or with a film forming agent, as or with an adhesion promotor, as or with an encapsulant, etc.
The silicone resin-linear polymer also forms films having excellent physical properties. The present invention further provides an electronic device including a film formed from the silicone resin-linear co-polymer.
A method of forming a conformal coating on an electronic device is also provided. This method comprises applying the composition on the electronic device, and forming the conformal coating on the electronic device from the composition.
Methods of preparing the silicone resin-linear copolymer are also disclosed. In a first embodiment, the method comprises reacting a linear organopolysiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group and an acetoxysilane to give an acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane. In this first embodiment, the method further comprises reacting the acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane with a silicone resin having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group to give the silicone resin-linear copolymer.
In a second embodiment, the method comprises reacting a linear organopolysiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or alkoxy group and a silicone resin having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or alkoxy group in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst. When the linear organopolysiloxane includes the silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, the silicone resin includes a silicon-bonded hydroxyl group or alkoxy group, and when the linear organopolysiloxane includes the silicon-bonded hydroxyl group or alkoxy group, the silicone resin includes the silicon-bonded hydrogen atom.
The present invention provides a silicone resin-linear copolymer. The silicone resin-linear copolymer has excellent properties and is well suited for diverse end use applications, including in compositions, to form films, etc. as described in greater detail below. Methods of preparing the silicone resin-linear copolymer are also disclosed.
Organopolysiloxanes contain siloxy units independently selected from [R3SiO1/2], [R2SiO2/2], [RSiO3/2], or [SiO4/2] siloxy units, where R may be, e.g., any organic group. These siloxy units are commonly referred to as M, D, T, and Q units, respectively. These siloxy units can be combined in various manners to form cyclic, linear, or branched structures. The chemical and physical properties of the resulting polymeric structures vary depending on the number and type of siloxy units in the organopolysiloxane. For example, “linear” organopolysiloxanes, or polymers, contain, in some embodiments, mostly D, or [R2SiO2/2] siloxy units, which results in polydiorganosiloxanes that are fluids of varying viscosities, depending on the “degree of polymerization” or “dp” as indicated by the number of D units in the polydiorganosiloxane. “Resinous” organopolysiloxanes, or silicone resins, include three dimensional structures attributable to siloxy units selected from T and/or Q siloxy units. Increasing the amount of T or Q siloxy units in an organopolysiloxane, in some embodiments, results in resins having increasing hardness and/or glass like properties.
As used herein “silicone resin-linear copolymers” refer to organopolysiloxanes containing “linear” D siloxy units in combination with “resin” T siloxy units. In particular, the silicone resin-linear copolymer has a resinous structure (A1) including R1 SiO3/2 units, and a linear structure (A2) including repeated R22SiO2/2 units, wherein R1 is a propyl group and each R2 is an independently selected substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbyl group.
Each R2 is independently selected and may be the same as or different from one another. R2 may independently be linear, branched, and/or cyclic. Cyclic hydrocarbyl groups encompass aryl groups as well as saturated or non-conjugated cyclic groups. Aryl groups may be monocyclic or polycyclic. Linear and branched hydrocarbyl groups may independently be saturated or unsaturated. For example, linear hydrocarbyl groups include alkyl groups, alkenyl groups, alkynyl groups, etc. One example of a combination of a linear and cyclic hydrocarbyl group is an aralkyl group. By “substituted,” it is meant that one or more hydrogen atoms may be replaced with atoms other than hydrogen (e.g. a halogen atom, such as chlorine, fluorine, bromine, etc.), or a carbon atom within the chain of R2 may be replaced with an atom other than carbon, i.e., R2 may include one or more heteroatoms within the chain, such as oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, etc.
Typically, the hydrocarbyl groups of each R2 independently comprise alkyl or aryl groups. Alkyl groups typically have from 1 to 30 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 24 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 20 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 12 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 10 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 6 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 to 3 carbon atoms, alternatively 1 or 2 carbon atoms, alternatively are methyl groups. Aryl groups typically have from 5 to 9 carbon atoms, alternatively 6 to 7 carbon atoms, and alternatively 5 to 6 carbon atoms.
The resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2) are bonded together in the silicone resin-linear copolymer via a siloxane bond.
In some embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer is a “block” copolymer, as opposed to “random” copolymer. The block copolymer refers to embodiments in which the linear structure (A2) is primarily bonded together to form at least one polymeric chain having, in some embodiments, an average of from 10 to 400 D units (e.g., an average of from 10 to 350 D units; 10 to 300 D units; 10 to 200 D units; 10 to 100 D units; 50 to 400 D units; 100 to 400 D units; 150 to 400 D units; 200 to 400 D units; 300 to 400 D units; 50 to 300 D units; 100 to 300 D units; 150 to 300 D units; 200 to 300 D units; 100 to 150 D units, 115 to 125 D units, 90 to 170 D units or 110 to 140 D units), which are referred herein as “linear blocks.” The number of D units may be referred to as the degree of polymerization, or DP. DP, as used herein, relates solely to the linear structure (A2) and not the resinous structure (A1). When the silicone resin-linear copolymer includes more than one linear structure (A2), the DP of each linear structure is independently selected.
The resinous structure (A1) generally comprises T units (i.e., [R1SiO3/2]) primarily bonded to each other to form three dimensional networks, or the resinous structure. The silicone resin-linear copolymer may comprise more than one resinous structure (A1), which, if present as a plurality, are typically bonded together via the linear structure (A2).
In some embodiments, the resinous structure (A1) has a number average molecular weight of at least 500 g/mole, e.g., at least 1000 g/mole, at least 2000 g/mole, at least 3000 g/mole or at least 4000 g/mole; or have a molecular weight of from 500 g/mole to 4000 g/mole, from 500 g/mole to 3000 g/mole, from 500 g/mole to 2000 g/mole, from 500 g/mole to 1000 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 2000 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 1500 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 1200 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 3000 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 2500 g/mole, from 1000 g/mole to 4000 g/mole, from 2000 g/mole to 3000 g/mole or from 2000 g/mole to 4000 g/mole. When the silicone resin-linear copolymer includes more than one resinous structure (A1), the number average molecular weight of each resinous structure is independently selected.
In certain embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer consists essentially of, alternatively consists of, the resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2). In these embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer is substantially free, alternatively free, of M units and Q units.
In these embodiments, the resinous structure (A1) consists of R1SiO3/2 units, wherein R1 is defined above. Similarly, in these or other embodiments, the linear structure (A2) consists of R22SiO2/2 units, wherein R2 is defined above.
As set forth above, the resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2) are bonded together via a siloxane bond. This is distinguished from preparation via hydrosilylation, in which case a divalent organic alkylene group may be present between the resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2). In certain embodiments, the siloxane bond is derived from an acetoxysilyl group. Alternatively, the siloxane bond may be derived from hydrolysis/condensation of any silicon-bonded hydrolysable group. Examples of hydrolysable groups when bonded to silicon include H, a halide group, an alkoxy group, an alkylamino group, a carboxy group, an alkyliminoxy group, an alkenyloxy, and an N-alkylamido group.
In other embodiments, the siloxane bond between the resinous structure (A1) and the linear structure (A2) is derived from dehydrogenation, and in particular dehydrogenation via a Lewis acid catalyst. Additional detail is provided below in regards to the method of preparing the silicone resin-linear polymer.
In certain embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of at least 20,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of at least 40,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of at least 50,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of at least 60,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of at least 70,000 g/mole, or alternatively a weight average molecular weight of at least 80,000 g/mole. In some embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer has a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of from about 20,000 g/mole to about 250,000 g/mole or from about 75,000 g/mole to about 120,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of from about 40,000 g/mole to about 100,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of from about 50,000 g/mole to about 100,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of from about 50,000 g/mole to about 80,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of from about 50,000 g/mole to about 70,000 g/mole, alternatively a weight average molecular weight of from about 50,000 g/mole to about 60,000 g/mole. In some embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer has a number average molecular weight (Mn) of from about 80,000 to about 120,000 g/mole; or from about 90,000 to about 110,000 g/mole g/mole. The average molecular weight may be readily determined using Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) techniques based on polystyrene standards.
In the silicone resin-linear copolymer, the (A1) resinous structure includes silicon-bonded propyl groups, whereas the (A2) linear structure includes silicon-bonded hydrocarbyl groups, which are independently selected and may be substituted or unsubstituted. Typically, in the silicone resin-linear copolymer, the amount of silicon-bonded propyl groups constitute at least 10 mol %, alternatively at least 20 mol %, alternatively at least 30 mol %, based on all silicon-bonded organic groups.
In some embodiments, the silicone resin-linear copolymer contains residual silanol groups (—SiOH). The amount of silanol groups present in the silicone resin-linear copolymer may vary from 0.5 to 35 mole percent silanol groups (—SiOH),alternatively from 2 to 32 mole percent silanol groups (—SiOH), alternatively from 8 to 22 mole percent silanol groups (—SiOH).
The silanol groups may be present on any siloxy units within the silicone resin-linear copolymer, although such silanol groups are typically present in the (A1) resinous structure. For example, typically, the majority (e.g., greater than 75%, greater than 80%, greater than 90%) of the silanol groups will reside on the (A1) resinous structure. The presence of such silanol groups allows for further condensation or other reaction if desired. However, the presence of such silanol groups does not adversely impact shelf life of the silicone resin-linear copolymer.
The silicone resin-linear copolymer has many diverse end use applications. For example, the invention also provides a film-forming agent comprising the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The film-forming agent may comprise components in addition to the silicone resin-linear copolymer, including any components in conventional film-forming agents, e.g. carriers, etc.

In certain embodiments, the (C) personal care ingredient comprises a film-forming polymer, which may be utilized as the (C) personal care ingredient whether the composition is utilized for skin care, hair care, etc. “Film-forming polymer,” as used herein, means a polymer or oligomer which is capable of, by itself or optionally in the presence of a film-forming agent, forming a film on a substrate. The film-forming polymer may form the film upon an application of a curing condition, e.g. the application of heat, exposure to atmospheric conditions, etc. Alternatively, the film-forming polymer may form the film upon evaporation of any carrier vehicle in which the film-forming polymer may optionally be disposed. The film-forming polymer may undergo a reaction, e.g. the film-forming polymer may become cross-linked or otherwise include additional bonds, when forming the film. However, the film-forming polymer may form the film in the absence of such a reaction. The film-forming polymer may be a gelling agent. The film-forming polymer is particularly advantageous when the composition is the sunscreen, although the (C) personal care ingredient may comprise the film-forming polymer in other compositions as well.
The substrate on which the film is formed may be any substrate, although the substrate is generally a portion of a mammal, particularly a human, as described in greater detail below with reference to the treatment method. Specific examples of suitable substrates include skin, hair, and nails.
Generally, the film is continuous, although the film may have a varying thickness. By continuous, it is meant that the film does not define any apertures. The film may be referred to as being macroscopically continuous. The film may be supported by the substrate, or may be bonded, e.g. physically and/or chemically, to the substrate. In certain embodiments, the film is optionally removable from the substrate, e.g. the film may be peelable from the substrate. The film may remain intact as a free-standing film upon being separated from the substrate or may be separated through application of shear, which may damage and/or destroy continuity of the film.
Specific examples of film-forming polymers that are suitable include acrylic polymers, polyurethanes, polyurethane-acrylics, polyesters, polyester-polyurethanes, polyether-polyurethanes, polyesteramides, alkyds, polyamides, polyureas, polyurea-polyurethanes, cellulose-based polymers (e.g. nitrocellulose), silicones, acrylic-silicones, polyacrylamides, fluoropolymers, polyisoprenes, and any copolymers or terpolymers thereof or including one of these. The term “silicones,” as used herein with reference to suitable film-forming polymers, includes linear, branched, and resinous silicones, although resinous silicones are generally referred to as silicone resins rather than polymers. The silicone may be modified, e.g. the silicone may be a silicone-grafted acrylic polymer.
As introduced above, the film-forming polymer may be disposed in a carrier vehicle, which may partially or fully solubilize the film-forming polymer. Depending on a selection of the film-forming polymer, the carrier vehicle may be, for example, an oil, e.g. an organic oil and/or a silicone oil, a solvent, water, etc. The film-forming polymer may be in the form of polymer particles, which are optionally surface-stabilized with at least one stabilizer, and the polymer particles may be present as a dispersion or emulsion.
The film-forming polymer may be a block polymer, which may be styrene-free. Typically, the block polymer comprises at least one first block and at least one second block, which may be linked together via an intermediate block comprising at least one constituent monomer of the first block and at least one constituent monomer of the second block.

Specific examples of hydrocarbon-based macromonomers include homopolymers and copolymers of linear or branched C8-C22 alkyl acrylate or methacrylate. The polymerizable end group may be a vinyl group or a (meth)acrylate group, e.g. poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) macromonomers; poly(dodecyl acrylate) or poly(dodecyl methacrylate) macromonomers; poly(stearyl acrylate) or poly(stearyl methacrylate) macromonomers, etc. Such macromonomers generally include one (meth)acrylate group as the polymerizable end group.
Additional examples of hydrocarbon-based macromonomers include polyolefins containing an ethylenically unsaturated end group (as the polymerizable end group), e.g. a (meth)acrylate end group. Specific examples of such polyolefins include polyethylene macromonomers, polypropylene macromonomers, polyethylene/polypropylene copolymer macromonomers, polyethylene/polybutylene copolymer macromonomers, polyisobutylene macromonomers; polybutadiene macromonomers; polyisoprene macromonomers; polybutadiene macromonomers; and poly (ethylene/butylene)-polyisoprene macromonomers.
Examples of silicone-based macromonomers include organopolysiloxanes containing the polymerizable end group, e.g. a (meth)acrylate end group. The organopolysiloxane may be linear, branched, partially branched, or resinous. In various embodiments, the organopolysiloxane is linear. In these embodiments, the organopolysiloxane may be polydimethylsiloxane, although hydrocarbon groups other than methyl groups may be present therein along with or in lieu of methyl groups. Typically, the polymerizable end group is terminal, although the polymerizable end group may optionally be pendant. One specific example of a silicone-based macromonomer is a monomethacryloxypropyl polydimethylsiloxane.
In certain embodiments, the film-forming polymer is an organic film-forming polymer that is soluble in oil as the carrier vehicle. In these embodiments, the film-forming polymer may be referred to as a liposoluble polymer. The liposoluble polymer may be of any type and specific examples thereof include those comprising or formed from olefins, cycloolefins, butadiene, isoprene, styrene, vinyl ethers, vinyl esters, vinyl amides, (meth)acrylic acid esters or amides, etc.

Amphiphilic silicones typically contain a silicone portion which is compatible with a silicone medium, and a hydrophilic portion. The hydrophilic portion may be, for example, the residue of a compound selected from alcohols and polyols, having 1 to 12 hydroxyl groups, and polyoxyalkylenes (e.g. those containing oxypropylene units and/or oxyethylene units).
The amphiphilic silicone may be an oil with or without gelling activity. Oils of this kind may comprise, for example, dimethicone copolyols.
In one embodiment, the film-forming polymer comprises a silicone organic elastomer gel. Silicone organic elastomer gels comprise linear organopolysiloxane chains crosslinked via polyoxyalkylenes. The silicone organic elastomer gel may further include hydrophilic polyether functionality pending from the linear organopolysiloxane chains.

Treatment methods with the personal care composition are also provided. For example, when the composition is a skin care composition, the method comprises the step of administering the composition to skin of a subject.
The treatment method comprises applying the composition to a substrate. Generally, the substrate comprises a portion of a mammal, particularly a human. One specific example of a suitable substrate is skin. However, the substrate need not be skin or dermis. For example, when the personal care composition comprises the hair care composition, the substrate is typically hair, which is a protein filament that grows from the follicles of skin. Alternatively, when the personal care composition is the nail care composition, the substrate is a nail, which comprises keratin. Alternatively still, when the personal care composition is the tooth care composition, the substrate is at least one tooth.
The step of applying may be carried out via any technique for contacting the substrate with the composition. For example, the composition may simply be applied to the substrate by a user, e.g. the user supplying the substrate, or by another. The composition may be dispensed, spread, and/or applied on the substrate, optionally while applying a force to spread or apply the composition. In certain embodiments, the substrate may also take the form of a bandage or similar article. Such articles can thus carry and deliver the composition to the user's skin when contacted. Alternatively, the bandage or other article may be at least partially coated with the composition, and the substrate is contacted with the composition by applying and optionally adhering the bandage or other article including the composition to the substrate, e.g. the user's skin. As another example, when the personal care composition comprises the tooth care composition, the tooth care composition may contact the substrate (e.g. teeth) by applying via a brush.
More specifically, when the composition comprises the hair care composition, the hair care composition may be used on hair in a conventional manner. An effective amount of the composition for washing or conditioning hair is applied to the hair. Such effective amounts generally range from 1 to 50, alternatively from 1 to 20, grams. Application to the hair typically includes working the composition through the hair such that most or all of the hair is contacted with the composition. These steps can be repeated as many times as desired to achieve the desired benefit.
Benefits obtained from using the hair care composition on hair include one or more of the following benefits: color retention, improvement in coloration process, hair conditioning, softness, detangling ease, silicone deposition, anti-static, anti-frizz, lubricity, shine, strengthening, viscosity, tactile, wet combing, dry combing, straightening, heat protection, styling, or curl retention.
When the composition comprises the skin care composition, the skin care composition may be used on skin in a conventional manner. An effective amount of the composition for the purpose is applied to the skin. Such effective amounts generally range from 1 to 3, mg/cm2. Application to the skin typically includes working the composition onto or into the skin. This method for applying to the skin comprises the steps of contacting the skin with the composition in an effective amount and then rubbing the composition into the skin. These steps can be repeated as many times as desired to achieve the desired benefit.
Benefits obtained from using the skin care composition on skin include one or more of the following benefits: stability in various formulations (o/w, w/o, anhydrous), utility as an emulsifier, level of hydrophobicity, organic compatibility, substantivity/durability, wash off resistance, interactions with sebum, performance with pigments, pH stability, skin softness, suppleness, moisturization, skin feel, long lasting, long wear, long lasting color uniformity, color enhancement, foam generation, optical effects (soft focus), stabilization of actives.
Methods of preparing the silicone resin-linear copolymer are also disclosed.
In a first embodiment, the method comprises reacting a linear organopolysiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group and an acetoxysilane to give an acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane. The silicon-bonded hydroxyl group is typically terminal in the linear organopolysiloxane. However, additional silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups may be present in pendent locations.
The linear organopolysiloxane becomes the (A2) linear structure of the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The linear organopolysiloxane may be selected based on desired characteristics, including DP, of the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The acetoxysilane typically has the formula R2qSiX4-q, where R2 is a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbyl group; X is an acetoxy group, and q is an integer selected from 0 or 1 to 3. In certain embodiments, q is 1 such that the acetoxysilane is a trialkylacetoxysilane. Examples of trialkylacetoxysilanes include methyltriacetoxysilane, ethyltriacetoxysilane, or a combination of both. The acetoxy groups of the above formula may be replaced with any hydrolysable group in alternative methods.
The reaction between the linear organopolysiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom and the acetoxysilane is a hydrolysis/condensation reaction. In various embodiments, the reaction is carried out in the presence of a catalyst, which can be any condensation catalyst. The reaction can be carried out in a solvent, e.g. any of the suitable carrier fluids described above.
Examples of suitable condensation catalyst include acids, such as carboxylic acids, e.g. formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, and/or valeric acid; bases; metal salts of organic acids, such as dibutyl tin dioctoate, iron stearate, and/or lead octoate; titanate esters, such as tetraisopropyl titanate and/or tetrabutyl titanate; chelate compounds, such as acetylacetonato titanium; transition metal catalysts, such as platinum-containing catalysts, including for example any of those introduced above as being suitable hydrosilylation catalysts; aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and the like. If utilized, the condensation catalyst are typically utilized in a catalytic amount, e.g. in amount of from greater than 0 to 5, alternatively 0.0001 to 1, alternatively 0.001 to 0.1, percent by weight, based on 100 parts by weight based on the combined weight of the linear organopolysiloxane and the acetoxysilane.
The relative amounts of the acetoxysilane and the linear organopolysiloxane may vary. In a specific embodiment, the relative amount of acetoxysilane is calculated based on a ratio of mols silicon from the acetoxysilane to mols silicon from the silicone resin×100, with the ratio typically being from greater than 0 to 12, alternatively from 1 to 10, alternatively from 1 to 8.
The acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane is linear and typically includes the acetoxysilyl group in a terminal location. In this first embodiment, the method further comprises reacting the acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane with a silicone resin having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group to give the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The reaction can be carried out in a solvent, e.g. any of the suitable carrier fluids described above.
The silicone resin typically has the formula R1SiO3/2, which corresponds to the (A1) resinous structure of the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The silicone resin typically includes at least some silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups, as understood in the art. As such, the acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane and the silicone resin also react via a hydrolysis/condensation reaction, which may be catalyzed as set forth above. The silicone resin may have a molecular weight selected based on desired characteristics of the silicone resin-linear copolymer.
The relative amounts of the acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane and the silicone resin may vary and are typically selected based on the desired ratio or amounts of the (A1) resinous structure and (A2) linear structure in the silicone resin-linear copolymer. The silicone resin is topically utilized in an amount of from 10 to 70 wt. %, alternatively from 20 to 55 wt. %, alternatively from 30 to 50 wt. %, alternatively from 40 to 50 wt. %, based on the combined weight of the acetoxysilylated organopolysiloxane and the silicone resin.
In a second embodiment, the method comprises reacting a linear organopolysiloxane having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or alkoxy group and a silicone resin having at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or alkoxy group in the presence of a Lewis acid catalyst. This reaction is a dehydrogenation reaction.
When the linear organopolysiloxane includes the silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, the silicone resin includes a silicon-bonded hydroxyl group or alkoxy group, and when the linear organopolysiloxane includes the silicon-bonded hydroxyl group or alkoxy group, the silicone resin includes the silicon-bonded hydrogen atom.
The silicon-bonded hydrogen atom, hydroxyl group, or alkoxy group of the linear organopolysiloxane is typically terminal in the linear organopolysiloxane. However, additional silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms, hydroxyl groups, or alkoxy groups may be present in pendent locations.
The dehydrogenation reaction can be carried out in a solvent, e.g. any of the suitable carrier fluids described above. Typically, the solvent, the linear organopolysiloxane, and the silicone resin are disposed in a vessel and heated to reflux. Typically, the contents of the vessel become a homogenous solution. The Lew acid catalyst is then disposed in the vessel, which results in the formation of gaseous byproducts (hydrogen, methane). The amount of Lewis acid catalyst may vary, e.g. from greater than 0 to 1,000, alternatively from 50 to 500, alternatively from 100 to 200, parts per million (ppm) based on total solids content.
The Lewis acid catalyst may be any Lewis acid catalyst suitable for the dehydrogenation reaction. Suitable Lewis acid catalysts for use herein include alumoxane (modified and unmodified), C1-30 hydrocarbyl substituted Group 13 compounds, including, for example, tri(hydrocarbyl)aluminum- or tri(hydrocarbyl)boron compounds and halogenated (including perhalogenated) derivatives thereof, having from 1 to 10 carbons in each hydrocarbyl or halogenated hydrocarbyl group. In specific embodiments, the Lewis acid catalyst comprises a perfluorinated tri(aryl)boron compound, e.g. tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane.
The Lewis acid catalyst may be removed via a neutral powder and filtration, e.g. alumina powder.

Silicone resin-linear copolymers are prepared in accordance with the present invention.
800 grams of deionized water are disposed in a flask equipped with a stir paddle, thermometer, and a water-cooled condenser. Water is cooled to 5° C. via an ice-water bath. A pre-mixed solution of propyltrichlorosilane (304 g) in toluene (200 g) is disposed in the flask over 1-2 minutes at a mixing speed of 400 rpm. The ice-water bath is removed with continued mixing for 5 minutes. Maximum temperature reached in the flask is 74° C. During the 5 minute time period of continued mixing the temperature drops to 70° C. The contents of the flask are transferred reaction mixture into a 1 L 3-neck round bottom flask with a bottom drain. The aqueous layer is removed. HCl is removed by repeatedly adding 37.0 grams of deionized water, heating for three minutes, and further removal of the aqueous layer. This process is repeated until the final contents of the flask had a pH of 4-4.5. 2-propanol (9.3 g) and deionized water (27.7 g) are disposed in the flask, and the flask is heated at 80° C. for a few more minutes. The aqueous phase is again removed. The contents of the flask are heated to reflux to remove residual water by azeotropic distillation. After mixing for several minutes at 80° C. and removal of the aqueous phase, the pH is ˜4. The contents of the flask are again heated to reflux and any aqueous phase is again removed. A reaction mixture comprising a silicone resin results, which is pressure filtered through an Osmonics MAGNA Nylon Supported Plain 5.0 um filter (47 mm diameter). The reaction product is optically clear and colorless. The silicone resin (T-propyl) has a Mn of 2,590 and a Mw of 6,050 (using Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) techniques based on polystyrene standards). The silicone resin had 58.8 mol % OH as measured via NMR.
56.98 grams of a solution comprising the silicone resin of Preparation Example 1 (45.0 grams solids in toluene) and 55.0 grams of Si—H terminated polydimethylsiloxane (DP of 184) are disposed in a flask. The flask is equipped with a thermometer, stir paddle, and a Dean Stark apparatus attached to a water-cooled condenser. A nitrogen blanket is applied. A heating mantle is used for heating. The Dean Stark was prefilled with toluene. The amount of toluene added results in a solids content of 52.9 wt. %. The contents of the flask are heated at reflux for 30 minutes to remove residual water and cooled to 85° C. At 85° C., 0.40 grams of a Lewis Acid catalyst (B(C6F5)3) in solution to provide 200 ppm based on solids is disposed in the flask, and the contents of the flask are heated at 85° C. for 30 min. Some toluene is distilled off to provide a NVC of ˜60%. The contents of the flask are heated at reflux for 3 hours, followed by the addition of tetramethyldisiloxane. After cooling to ˜28° C., 1.20 grams of tetramethyldisiloxane are disposed in the flask. The contents of the flask are mixed while cooling to room temperature for 30 minutes. At 50° C., 0.40 grams of a Lewis Acid catalyst (B(C6F5)3) in solution to provide 200 ppm based on solids is disposed in the flask, and the flask is heated at 50° C. for 30 minutes. The next day, neutral aluminum oxide (2.0 grams) are disposed in the flask and mixed for several hours at room temperature. A reaction mixture comprising a silicone resin-linear copolymer results. The reaction mixture is pressure filtered through a 142 mm diameter Magna, Nylon, Supported, Plain, 5.0 Micron filter. The silicone resin-linear copolymer has a Mn of 42,000 and a Mw of 121,000 g/mole (using Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) techniques based on polystyrene standards). The silicone resin-linear copolymer had 19.7 mol % OH as measured via NMR. The silicone resin-linear copolymer forms films that are optically transparent, which is desirable.
48.89 grams of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) having a DP of 184 and a silicon-bonded hydroxyl group at each terminal in toluene (65 wt. % of the PDMS in toluene) and 1.59 grams of an acetoxysilane (50/50 molar ratio of methyltriacetoxysilane and ethyltriacetoxysilane) are disposed in a flask and allowed to react for one hour at room temperature to give an acetoxysilylated PDMS. 40 grams of a silicone resin (TPr, 42 wt. % in toluene) having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group is disposed in a flask to give a weight ratio of the acetoxysilylated PDMS to the silicone resin of 45:55. The reaction is carried out at 90° C. for 4 hours to give a silicone resin-linear copolymer. Non-reactive volatile solids content was maintained at 28% to maintain an optically clear solution during the reaction.
55 grams of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) having a DP of 184 and a silicon-bonded hydroxyl group at each terminal in toluene (30.1 wt. % of the PDMS in toluene) and 45 grams solids of a silicone resin (TPr 50.95 wt. % in toluene) having at least one silicon-bonded hydroxyl group is disposed in a flask and heated to reflux for 30 minutes. At 85° C. 0.4 grams of a Lewis acid catalyst (tris-pentafluoroborane in toluene to provide 200 ppm of tris-pentafluoroborane) is disposed in the flask. Bubbling and foaming occurs, evidencing the formation of gas and initiation of a dehydrogenation reaction. The contents of the flask are heated at reflux for 30 minutes to one hour to give a reaction product including a silicone resin-linear copolymer. The Lewis acid catalyst is removed from the reaction product by adsorption onto alumina powder and subsequent filtration. Alumina powder was utilized in an amount of 2 wt. % based on solids. The dehydrogenation reaction obviates any undesirable byproducts from the reaction product.
The invention has been described in an illustrative manner, and it is to be understood that the terminology which has been used is intended to be in the nature of words of description rather than of limitation. Obviously, many modifications and variations of the present invention are possible in light of the above teachings. The invention may be practiced otherwise than as specifically described.
