Polyphenylsilsesquioxanes. New structures–new properties

“…4 based on commercial varnishes based on phenylsilsesquioxane (or its copolymers with difunctional monomers) ensure longterm operation of devices under high humidity conditions at 250-300 C. 6 The optical transparency and high refractive index make polyphenylsilsesquioxanes attractive objects for optics and optoelectronics. They are used as waveguides [7][8][9][10] and coatings for optical devices. [11][12][13][14] Incorporation of various lanthanide complexes [15][16][17] into polyphenylsilsesquioxanes allows one to obtain plastic luminescent materials.…”
