摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a composition for an acoustic wave probe, which can give a silicone resin having high resin hardness, tear strength and flexural fatigue resistance while maintaining high sensitivity to acoustic waves, and capable of improving sensitivity, a silicone resin for an acoustic wave probe, an acoustic wave probe, an acoustic wave measurement device, an ultrasonic diagnosis device, a photoacoustic wave measurement device, an ultrasonic endoscope using the above composition, and a production method of a silicone resin for an acoustic wave probe.SOLUTION: The composition for an acoustic wave probe contains at least a polysiloxane, an organic peroxide, a polysiloxane resin and a siloxane compound in a polysiloxane mixture, in which the content of the siloxane compound is 0.001 to 5 pts.mass with respect to total 100 pts.mass of the polysiloxane mixture. The present invention also provides a silicone resin for an acoustic wave probe, an acoustic wave probe, an acoustic wave measurement device, an ultrasonic diagnosis device, an ultrasonic probe, a photoacoustic wave measurement device and an ultrasonic endoscope, and a production method of a silicone resin for an acoustic wave probe.SELECTED DRAWING: None
