To provide a low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition capable of forming a low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores having excellent mechanical properties and stable electrical properties. [Means] The present invention provides a low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition comprising: a polysiloxane, a pore-generating material, a condensation catalyst generator, and a solvent.

A system for applying a coating composition is provided herein. The system includes a first high transfer efficiency applicator defining a first nozzle orifice and a second high transfer efficiency applicator defining a second nozzle orifice. The system further includes a reservoir. The system further includes a substrate defining a first target area and a second target area. The first high transfer efficiency applicator and the second high transfer efficiency applicator are configured to receive the coating composition from the reservoir and configured to expel the coating composition through the first nozzle orifice to the first target area of the substrate and to expel the coating composition through the second nozzle orifice to the second target area of the substrate.

A polysiloxane-substituted quinacridone pigment is produced by a quinacridone pigment with an epoxy-terminated polysiloxane under conditions effective to cause the epoxy group on the polysiloxane to react with, and bond the polysiloxane to, the quinacridone pigment. The quinacridone pigment thus produced has the polysiloxane grouping bonded to one of the quinacridone nitrogen atoms via a hydrocarbon linking group, which bears a hydroxyl group on a carbon atom α or β to the quinacridone nitrogen atom. These quinacridone pigments are useful in electrophoretic displays.

A heat-resistant silicone resin composition contains a silicone resin and a heat resistance improver. The heat resistance improver is an organic polycyclic aromatic compound having one or more secondary amino groups and one or more ketone groups in a ring structure. The organic polycyclic aromatic compound maybe, e.g., quinacridone (P.V. 19) represented by the following Chemical Formula 2. A silicone resin composite material of the present invention includes the heat-resistant silicone resin composition and at least one filler selected from the group consisting of an inorganic filler and an organic filler. The at least one filler is contained in the heat-resistant silicone resin composition. Thus, the silicone resin composition and the silicone resin composite material have high heat resistance.
