Patent ID: 8912268

Claim:
A nanomaterial-filled silicone composition, comprising: a hydrosilylation-curable silicone composition comprising (A) a silicone resin having the formula (R 1 R 2 2 SiO 1/2 ) w (R 2 2 SiO 2/2 ) x (R 1 SiO 3/2 ) y (SiO 4/2 ) z (I), or (A′) a silicone resin having the formula (R 1 R 5 2 SiO 1/2 ) w (R 5 2 SiO 2/2 ) x (R 5 SiO 3/2 ) y (SiO 4/2 ) z (III), wherein R 1 is C 1 to C 10 hydrocarbyl or C 1 to C 10 halogen-substituted hydrocarbyl, both free of aliphatic unsaturation, R 2 is R 1 or alkenyl, R 5 is R 1 or —H, w is from 0 to 0.8, x is from 0 to 0.6, y is from 0 to 0.99, z is from 0 to 0.35, w+x+y+z=1, y+z/(w+x+y+z) is from 0.2 to 0.99, and w+x/(w+x+y+z) is from 0.01 to 0.8, provided the silicone resin (A) has an average of at least two silicon-bonded alkenyl groups per molecule or that the silicone resin (A′) has an average of at least two silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule; and a carbon nanomaterial.
