Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 56 words
An article of manufacture comprises an electronic device and an encapsulant thereover, said encapsulant being a polymeric silicone resin containing from 0.02 to 0.1 weight percent of a soluble colored, free porphyrin compound having a molar extinction coefficient to a wavelength in the visible spectrum of at least 1×10 4 liter mole -1 cm. -1 .
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 56 words
An article of manufacture comprises an electronic device and an encapsulant thereover, said encapsulant being a polymeric silicone resin containing from 0.02 to 0.1 weight percent of a soluble colored, free porphyrin compound having a molar extinction coefficient to a wavelength in the visible spectrum of at least 1×10 4 liter mole -1 cm. -1 .
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
The article recited in claim 1, wherein the porphyrin is a tetraphenylporphyrin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 47 words
The article recited in claim 1, wherein the porphyrin is represented by the structural formula: ##STR2## and wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are 1 to 7 carbon radicals selected from the group consisting of alkyl, phenyl and substituted phenyl radicals.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 46 words
A composition of matter comprising a polymeric silicone resin containing from 0.02 to 0.1 weight percent of a soluble colored, free porphyrin compound having a molar extinction coefficient to a wavelength in the visible spectrum of at least 1×10 4 liter mole -1 cm. -1 .
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 46 words
A composition of matter comprising a polymeric silicone resin containing from 0.02 to 0.1 weight percent of a soluble colored, free porphyrin compound having a molar extinction coefficient to a wavelength in the visible spectrum of at least 1×10 4 liter mole -1 cm. -1 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 12 words
The composition recited in claim 4, wherein the porphyrin is a tetraphenylporphyrin.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 47 words
The composition recited in claim 4, wherein the porphyrin is represented by the structural formula: ##STR3## and wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 4 are 1 to 7 carbon radicals selected from the group consisting of alkyl, phenyl and substituted phenyl radicals.
