Silicone is more useful than you think!


Electronic product


China's electronic industry purchases about 1.1 billion yuan worth of silicone products every year, accounting for 43% of Asia's purchase of silicone products. Although organosilicon is used in many different electronic products, it is essential for China's telecom information technology field, which has a large market share. Silicone can also be seen in semiconductors and LEDs.


In the field of consumer electronics and commerce, silicone sealant, adhesive and coating can be used to produce circuits, connectors, capacitors, coils, transistors and electronic tubes in electronic devices. Silicone can protect different electronic components from heat, impact and pollution. As electronic devices become smaller, more portable, and more complex, silicone is essential to ensure the long-term stability and performance of:


Mobile phone


MP3 player


Tablet PC


Global positioning system


Deaf-aid


LED lamp


Organosilicon also helps to save energy for electric lamps.


In 2020, the sales of LED products in China is expected to reach 70% of the total sales of the lighting industry, which means 340 billion kwh of power saving and 306 million tons of carbon dioxide emission reduction


LED lamp consumes 90% less energy than traditional lamp


In the use of LED products, the light loss of LED is reduced, the brightness and durability are improved, and the reliability and protection are enhanced, so as to reduce the product replacement rate, maintenance cost and the generation of solid waste.


In general, organosilicon helps to improve the energy efficiency, connectivity, mobility and power of electronic products.
