In this article, a series of high refractive indices (1.50–1.53) thiol phenyl polysiloxane (TPS) were synthesized via hydrolytic sol–gel reaction. The Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT–IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (NMR) results showed that TPS conformed to the predicted structures. Natural terpene linalool was exploited as photocrosslinker to fabricate UV–curing linalool–polysiloxane hybrid films (LPH) with TPS via photoinitiated thiol–ene reaction. LPH rapidly cured under UV irradiation at the intensity of 80 mW/cm 2  in 30 s, exhibiting good UV–curing properties. The optical transmittance of LPH in the wavelength of 300–800 nm was over 90%, exhibiting good optical transparency. The water contact angle and water vapor permeability results showed that the introduction of phenyl groups enhance the hydrophobicity and water vapor barrier properties of LPH. The results indicated the potential of LPHs in the applications of optical functional coatings.
