Abstract: Disclosed is a positive electrode material for a lithium secondary battery. The positive electrode material includes a positive electrode active material formed of Li—[Mn—Ti]-M-O-based material including a transition metal (M) to enable reversible intercalation and deintercalation of lithium and molybdenum oxide. The positive electrode active material is coated with the molybdenum oxide to form a coating layer on a surface thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a siloxane-based resin prepared by hydrolyzing and polycondensing a cyclic siloxane compound, a silane compound having three hydrolysable functional groups and a silane compound having three hydrolysable functional groups and one heat-labile functional group, in an organic solvent in the presence of a catalyst and water. Also, disclosed herein is a method of forming an insulating film between interconnect layers of a semiconductor device using the siloxane-based resin thus prepared, whereby an insulating film having low dielectric constant as well as excellent mechanical properties can be obtained.
