Provided herein is a carbinol-functional silicone resin. The carbinol-functional silicone resin is prepared by reacting a raw silicone resin having at least 1 mass% of silicon atom-bonded hydroxyl groups, silicon atom-bonded alkoxy groups, or a combination thereof, and a dihydroxy-functional compound, in the presence of a condensation catalyst and a solvent. The carbinol-functional silicone resin can produce a solid silicone-modified polyester without gelation of the silicone resin. |
