A silicone-polycarbonate copolymer has the formula X.sub.g[Z.sub.jY.sub.o].sub.c, where each X is an independently selected silicone moiety having a particular structure, each Y is an independently selected polycarbonate moiety, each Z is an independently selected siloxane moiety, subscript c is from 1 to 150, subscript g is >1, 0≤j<2, and 0<o<2, with the proviso that j+o=2 in each moiety indicated by subscript c. Methods of preparing the silicone-polycarbonate copolymer are also disclosed. Further, a sealant is disclosed, the sealant comprising the silicone-polycarbonate copolymer and a condensation-reaction catalyst.

A laminate debonding method includes producing a laminate by joining a first substrate formed of a semiconductor-forming substrate to a second substrate formed of a support substrate which allows passage of infrared laser light, by the mediation of a first adhesive layer provided on the first substrate and a second adhesive layer provided on the second substrate, wherein the first adhesive layer is obtained by curing an adhesive (A) containing a component which is cured through hydrosilylation, and the second adhesive layer is obtained by use of an adhesive (B) formed of a polymer adhesive having an aromatic ring in at least one of a main chain and a side chain and which allows passage of infrared laser light; and irradiating the laminate with infrared laser light from a second substrate side for debonding the second substrate at the interface between the first and second adhesive layers.
