Abstract

An optical silica-containing polysiloxane resin comprises colloidal silica and a polysiloxane resin. The polysiloxane resin has the formula RSiO.sub.3/2, where R is selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbon groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and fluorohydrocarbon groups of 3 to 10 carbon atoms. The fluorohydrocarbon groups have the general formula C.sub.n F.sub.(2n+1) C.sub.2 H.sub.4 --, where n is an integer of 1 to 8. The optical silica-containing polysiloxane resin has high light transmissivity and high surface hardness, and can be used for optical elements.
