Hydroxyl-functional polyamine silicone ligand suitable for quantum dot compositions and articles

Abstract

A quantum dot article is described comprising a first barrier layer, a second barrier layer, and a quantum dot layer between the first and second barrier layer. The quantum dot layer comprises light-emitting nanoparticles dispersed in a cured matrix. The quantum dot layer further comprises a hydroxyl-iunctional polyamine silicone ligand that is the reaction product of a polyamine silicone ligand and a monofunctional epoxy compound. Also described is a hydroxyl-functional polyamine silicone that is the reaction product of a polyamine silicone and a monofunctional epoxy compound, as well as quantum dot compositions comprising light-emitting nanoparticles and the described hydroxyl-functional polyamine silicone.
