Abstract: A multifunctional organosilicon compound is provided which has the general formula XSi([OSiR2]p-0-SiR2Y)a(R1)3-a— ln the formula, X is selected from H and ethylenically un saturated moieties; each Y independently comprises a functional moiety selected from alkoxysilyl moieties, acryloxy moieties, and epoxide moieties; each R is an independently selected hydrocarbyl group; each R1 is an independently selected hydrocarbyl group; subscript a is 1, 2, or 3; and each subscript b is independently 0, 1, or 2. A method of preparing the multifunctional organosilicon compound is also provided. The method comprises reacting (A) an organosilanol compound and (B) a silane compound having at least two hydrolysable groups. A functionalized siloxane compound prepared from the multifunctional organosilicon compound, a method of preparing the functionalized siloxane compound, and an adhesive comprising the functionalized siloxane compound are also provided.

Abstract: Vacuum lamination methods for forming conformally coated articles having a preformed lamination layer conformally coated to or on an object such as an LED array are provided. These vacuum lamination methods utilize a single heating step to heat a middle portion of the preformed lamination layer to a flowable condition prior to the preformed lamination layer being conformally coated over the article, such as the array of light emitting diodes disposed on an inner portion of a first side of a submount wafer.

Abstract: An aqueous silicone emulsion which yields an elastomer upon removal of the water comprises a polydiorganosiloxane having alkoxysilyl endblocking groups with at least two alkoxy groups attached to the silicon atom, titanium catalyst, and optionally, a filler.

Abstract: A shelf stable aqueous silicone emulsion which yields an elastomer upon removal of the water is produced by combining a reactive polydiorganosiloxane present as a cationic or nonionic emulsion of dispersed particles in water, a crosslinker, and a tin catalyst, the tin catalyst being in the form of a divalent tin atom combined with organic radicals. The emulsion can be reinforced with colloidal silica without effecting the shelf life of the reinforced emulsion.
