The present invention relates to an organopolysiloxane, a method for preparing the same and a silicone composition comprising the same. More specifically, the present invention provides an organopolysiloxane containing no active amine group and having a specific structure wherein one or more hydroxyl groups are given in its side chain, by which the elasticity and adhesion to a substrate such as a light-emitting diode device can be improved, a method for preparing the same and a silicone composition comprising the same.
Epoxy resins have been generally used as sealing materials for light emitting diode (LED) devices. However, due to a recently growing need for heat resistance according to the tendency of high luminance and high output of LED, silicone resins have received attention as alternatives thereof.
Silicone resins are generally known to have good heat resistance, cold resistance, electric insulation, weatherability, water repellency, transparency and the like, and thus are widely used in various fields such as electric/electronic devices, OA appliances, cars, precision instruments, construction materials and the like.
However, since the adhesion property of silicone resins is relatively inferior to that of epoxy resins, the direct replacement of epoxy resins with silicone resins may cause problems regarding the adhesion to a substrate.
For this reason, Korean Laid-open Patent Publication No. 10-2007-0049589 discloses a method for improving the adhesion to a gold (Au) substrate by separately adding an alkoxy silane containing acid anhydride group as an adhesion provider in a curable composition for sealing LED devices.
In addition, Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication No. 2005-161132 discloses a method for preparing a laminated structure with good adhesion strength by using an addition-curable silicone composition containing an adhesion promoter between different two layers, one of which has a hardness of less than 50A whereas the other has a hardness of more than 50A. This publication also discloses as the adhesion promoter, linear or partly branched siloxane resins containing methoxy, glycidoxypropyl or vinyl group.
Meanwhile, Japanese Patent No. 3344286 discloses a non-solvent type, addition-curable silicone resin composition which has good moldability as compared with solvent type, condensation-curable silicone varnishes, and is remarkably eco-friendly since it does not contain any solvent.
However, the conventional prior arts including the above publications provide the side chains of the LED-sealing silicone resins with substituents such as phenyl, methyl, vinyl, etc. and use separate additives such as a silane coupling agent to improve the adhesion. In general, along with the main material such as the following 1) to 9), various additives including curing agent and adhesion provider are further added, and thus the process for manufacturing LED packages is very complex and difficult.
1) ViMe2SiO(MePhSiO)nSiMe2Vi
2) ViMe2SiO(MePhSi)m(MeViSiO)nSiMe2Vi
3) ViMe2SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeViSiO)nSiMe3
4) Me3SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeViSiO)nSiMe3
5) HMe2SiO(MePhSiO)nSiMe2H
6) HMe2SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeHSiO)nSiMe2H
7) HMe2SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeHSiO)nSiMe3
8) Me3SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeViSiO)nSiMe3
9) Me3SiO(MePhSiO)m(MeHSiO)nSiMe3
(Vi, Me and Ph represent vinyl, methyl and phenyl, respectively)
Therefore, it is required to develop a method capable of improving the adhesion of silicone materials to substrates through a simple process while maintaining essential properties such as hardness, light transmittance, refractive property, etc. particularly in silicone materials for sealing LED devices.

Another aspect of the present invention provides a silicone composition comprising said organopolysiloxane.
The present invention can provide silicone materials with good adhesion and elasticity (crack resistance) by a simple process in addition to good hardness (curing property), light transmittance and refractive index, not by separately adding an adhesive additive such as a silane coupling agent but by giving one or more functional groups which show adhesion property to the silicone materials themselves, and thus can be usefully applied as a sealing material, particularly for LED devices.
The present invention is explained in detail below.
Organopolysiloxane
The organopolysiloxane of the present invention is represented by the following Formula 1.
[Formula 1]
Figure PCTKR2011008397-appb-I000003
In the above Formula 1,
each of R1, R2 and R3 is independently hydrogen; C1-C18alkyl, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl or octadecyl; C5-C8cycloalkyl, for example, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl; C6-C10aryl, for example, phenyl, tolyl, xylyl or naphthyl; C6-C10arylC1-C6alkyl, for example, benzyl, phenethyl or 3-phenylpropyl; C1-C6alkyl substituted with 1 to 3 halogens, for example, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl or 3-chloropropyl; or C2-C8alkenyl, for example, vinyl, allyl, butenyl, pentenyl or hexenyl;
R7 is -R8-N(H)-R9 where R8 is C1-C10alkylene and R9 is -C(=O)-O-R10 or -C(=O)-R10 where R10 is C1-C4alkyl having at least one hydroxyl group [e.g., -(CH2)nOH where n is 1 to 4, or -CH2CH(CH2OH)2]; and
each of p, q, r and s is independently an integer of from 1 to 1000.
The present invention relates to reactive organopolysiloxanes useful for luminance improvement, device protection and adhesion in LED devices or the like. The present invention prepares highly refractive organopolysiloxanes, which have a novel structure that is not found in conventional polysiloxanes, by providing reactive curable polysiloxanes with one or more functional groups capable of showing adhesion property. The present invention uses the highly refractive organopolysiloxane prepared as such in a silicone composition used for sealing LED devices or the like.
The organopolysiloxane of the present invention contains in its own structure one or more functional groups capable of providing adhesion and elasticity, and thus can reduce the procedures and time for sealing LED devices as compared with conventional methods wherein an adhesion provider is separately added. The organopolysiloxane of the present invention also has an advantage of preventing the crack phenomenon which may cause serious damage to LED devices. Accordingly, an improvement in properties of silicone composition for sealing LED devices and the reduction of cost for manufacturing LED devices can be expected. Concretely, if the organopolysiloxane prepared according to the present invention is used, it is possible to provide a cured product which has an easily controlled refractive index and good hardness, light transmittance and heat resistance, and does not show white turbidity when it is placed in a high temperature/high humidity condition and returned to room temperature.
Preparation of organopolysiloxane
The other aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the aforesaid organopolysiloxane of the present invention, the method comprising reacting a compound of the following Formula 2 with lactone, carbonate, acetic anhydride or succinic acid, or derivative thereof.
[Formula 2]
Figure PCTKR2011008397-appb-I000004
In the above Formula 2,
each of R1, R2 and R3 is independently hydrogen; C1-C18alkyl, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, tert-butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl or octadecyl; C5-C8cycloalkyl, for example, cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl; C6-C10aryl, for example, phenyl, tolyl, xylyl or naphthyl; C6-C10arylC1-C6alkyl, for example, benzyl, phenethyl or 3-phenylpropyl; C1-C6alkyl substituted with 1 to 3 halogens, for example, 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl or 3-chloropropyl; or C2-C8alkenyl, for example, vinyl, allyl, butenyl, pentenyl or hexenyl;
R6 is selected from the group consisting of CH2CH2CH2NH2, CH2CH2-O-CH2CH2NHCH2CH2CH2NH2, CH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH(CH2CH2NH2)CH2CH2CH2NH2, CH2CH(CH3)CH2NHCH2CH2NHCH3, CH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH2 and CH2CH2N(CH2CH2NH2)2; and
each of p, q, r and s is independently an integer of from 1 to 1000.
In general, a curable composition for sealing LED devices comprises a combination of reactive organopolysiloxanes and mainly uses platinum catalyst as a curing catalyst. However, if an active amine group (see Ex. 1 below) such as R6 in the above Formula 2 is present in the organopolysiloxane, it acts as a poison to the platinum catalyst and thus the curing does not occur.
(Ex. 1)
Primary amine group: -NH2
Secondary amine group: -N(H)-R (R is generally C1-C10alkyl having at least one hydroxyl group)
Meanwhile, an organopolysiloxane having -OH group in its side chain can be prepared by using a material such as the following Ex. 2. But in this case, the conversion to the secondary amine group form (-NH-) in the above Ex. 1 occurs and thus the amine activity still exists. Accordingly, it is highly likely that the platinum catalyst would be deactivated during the curing reaction and the curing would fail.
(Ex. 2)
Figure PCTKR2011008397-appb-I000005
In the present invention, all amine groups existing in an organopolysiloxane structure such as the above Formula 2 are converted to -N-C(=O)-R or -N-C(=O)-O-R structure, by which it is possible to prevent the curing failure and impart good elasticity. Furthermore, a curable organopolysiloxane composition with improved adhesion property can be provided due to the existence of -OH group in the side chain. Concretely, lactone, carbonate, acetic anhydride or succinic acid, or derivative thereof reacts with R6 (active amine group-containing substituent) in the above Formula 2, and the present organopolysiloxane is prepared with various structures according to concrete materials reacting with R6. For example, if glycerol carbonate among carbonate compounds is used, the prepared organopolysiloxane of the present invention has two (2) -OH groups in its side chain end per 1 mol of glycerol carbonate.
In an embodiment, the present invention gives one or more hydroxyl groups (for example, -(CH2)OH)) to the side chain of the compound structure as the following 1) to 9), by which the adhesion property of a silicone material (for example, a silicone material for sealing LED devices) can be improved. In addition, because of the incorporation of -N-C(=O)-O structure or the like, after the curing the elasticity of silicone material can be improved and the brittleness can be reduced, by which the cracking of the cured product can be prevented.

Concretely, as the lactone, carbonate, acetic anhydride or succinic acid, or derivative thereof which reacts with the compound of Formula 2, a compound selected from the following group of Formula 3 can be used.

each of p, q, r and t is independently an integer of from 1 to 1000.
Concretely, in the condensation reaction of a compound of the above Formula 4 and a compound of the above Formula 5, an alkali metal hydroxide can be used as the alkali catalyst. Alkali metal hydroxide catalyst is preferably used in an amount of from 1 to 100 ppm (more preferably, from 10 to 50 ppm) based on the weight of reactants in terms of proper maintenance of reaction rate, prevention of color change or white turbidity, minimization of ion (Na+, K+, etc.) content in the final product (concretely, 5 ppm or less) and economy.

If the reaction temperature of step (1) is lower than 60℃, the reaction time becomes too long and economic feasibility may become lowered. If the reaction temperature of step (1) is higher than 200℃, the product may be too viscous.

In addition, its water absorption rate is preferably 12 g/m2 or lower after being kept at 38℃ for 24 hours.
