Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Optical assemblies comprising an optical device and a composition comprising a resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer are disclosed. In some embodiments, the organosiloxane block copolymers has a weight average molecular weight of at least 20,000 g/mole and includes 40 to 90 mole percent disiloxy units of the formula [R 1 2SiO 2/2 ] arranged in linear blocks each having an average of from 10 to 400 disiloxy units [R 1 2SiO 2/2 ] per linear block, 10 to 60 mole percent trisiloxy units of the formula [R 2 —SiO 3/2 ] arranged in non-linear blocks each having a weight average molecular weight of at least 500 g/mol, and 0.5 to 25 mole percent silanol groups. R 1 is independently a C 1 to C 30 hydrocarbyl and R 2 is independently a C 1 to C 20 hydrocarbyl. At least 30% of the non-linear blocks are crosslinked with another non-linear block and aggregated in nano-domains. Each linear block is linked to at least one non-linear block.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of forming an optical assembly comprising an optical device and a composition comprising a resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer, said method comprising the step of combining the optical device and the composition to form the optical assembly, wherein the resin-linear organosiloxane block copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of at least 20,000 g/mole and comprises: 40 to 90 mole percent disiloxy units of the formula [R 1 2 SiO 2/2…
