Abstract

Abstract A method for preparing a nanoporous silicone resin which can be used to form low dielectric constant films useful for electrical insulating coatings on electronic devices comprising (A) contacting a hydridosilicon containing resin with a 1-alkene comprising about 8 to 28 carbon atoms in the presence of a platinum group metal-containing hydrosilation catalyst effecting formation of an alkylhydridosiloxane resin where at least 5 percent of silicon atoms are substituted with at least one group comprising about 8 to 28 carbon atoms and at least 45 percent of silicon atoms are substituted with at least one hydrogen atom and (B) heating the alkylhydridosiloxane resin of step (A) at a temperature sufficient to effect curing and thermolysis of alkyl groups comprising about 8 to 28 carbon atoms from the silicon atoms thereby forming a nanoporous silicone resin.
