What is the development prospect of silicone products? As a new type of synthetic polymer material, silica gel has outstanding advantages: silica gel has high elongation, corrosion resistance, and high temperature stability. Food-grade silica gel is more suitable for cooking, and baking is equal to appliances that are in direct contact with the human body. Moreover, silica gel is an inert substance, not easy to dissolve, has good structural stability, is a porous material, has good air permeability, is safe and non-toxic, hygienic and healthy, and can effectively prevent the growth of various bacteria and fungi.
Silicone products are a product that has developed rapidly in recent years. How hot is it? Take a look at our daily life, ranging from silicone wires and cable sheaths to small silicone gaskets and seals, from industrial high-voltage caps for TV sets, to silicone water cups in daily life, and to medical silicone prostheses. Silicone products are simply everywhere. From a global perspective, the current global silicone production capacity has reached 500,000 t/a, with annual sales of about 1 billion US dollars. As a new type of synthetic polymer material, it is widely used in various fields such as aviation, aerospace, electronics, automobiles, machinery, and daily use due to its high and low temperature resistance, aging resistance, excellent electrical properties, and physiological inertness.
In recent years, the production of silicone products has shown a rapid development trend, and its application fields are also expanding. Some regions such as America, Europe, and Asia are the main technology research and development and market locations, with concentrated production capacity and obvious characteristics. China’s silicone market demand is huge, and the current stage is an important stage for the development of my country’s silicone industry. By 2020, China will surpass the United States to become the world’s largest producer and consumer of silicone. According to statistics, from 2000 to 2010, the typical consumption of organic silicon in my country’s market grew at an average annual rate of 35%, of which more than two-thirds depended on imports. “In the next few years, China’s organic silicon market will still be in short supply and will rely heavily on imports.
