  • Patent number: 8551277
    Abstract: A method for producing a light emitting diode device includes the steps of preparing a laminate including, in order, a supporting layer, a constraining layer and an encapsulating resin layer, each formed in a thickness direction; cutting the encapsulating resin layer and the constraining layer in the laminate into a pattern corresponding to the light emitting diode element; removing a portion which does not correspond to the light emitting diode element in the encapsulating resin layer and the constraining layer that are cut into the pattern; allowing the encapsulating resin layer corresponding to the light emitting diode element to be opposed to the light emitting diode element to be pressed in the direction where they come close to each other so as to encapsulate the light emitting diode element by the encapsulating resin layer; and removing the supporting layer and the constraining layer from the laminate.

  • Publication number: 20130069106
    Abstract: A method for producing a silicone resin sheet includes the steps of forming a first coating layer by applying a first silicone resin composition which contains a first organopolysiloxane and a second organopolysiloxane; forming a precursor layer from the first coating layer by reacting the first organopolysiloxane with the second organopolysiloxane so as to have a conversion ratio of 5 to 40%; and forming a second layer on at least one surface in a thickness direction of the precursor layer by applying a second silicone resin composition which contains a third organopolysiloxane, a fourth organopolysiloxane, a hydrosilylation catalyst, and a curing retardant containing tetraalkylammonium hydroxide.

  • Publication number: 20130032852
    Abstract: A silicone resin composition contains a silicon-containing component including a silicon atom to which a monovalent hydrocarbon group selected from a saturated hydrocarbon group and an aromatic hydrocarbon group is bonded and a silicon atom to which an alkenyl group is bonded. The number of moles of alkenyl group per 1 g of the silicon-containing component is 200 to 2000 ?mol/g.

  • Publication number: 20120306107
    Abstract: A silicone resin composition contains a first organopolysiloxane having, in one molecule, both at least two ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon groups and at least two hydrosilyl groups; a second organopolysiloxane having, in one molecule, at least two hydrosilyl groups without containing an ethylenically unsaturated hydrocarbon group; a hydrosilylation catalyst; and a hydrosilylation inhibitor.
