From the invention of silicone rubber in the 18th century to the flourishing development of the silicone industry today, the silicone industry has gone through a process from scratch, from simplicity to complexity. Nowadays, silicone manufacturers are also like mushrooms after a rain, with not only established foreign companies that have been developing for many years, but also emerging domestic enterprises blooming everywhere. The classification of silicone is also different in different ways, and its application range has been from initially only applied in aviation and military industries to now widely applied in industries such as electronics and electrical, textiles, automobiles, machinery, leather and paper making, metals, paints, medicine and medical treatment, supporting appliances, electronics, toys, hardware, medical equipment, sports goods, audio, lighting, machinery, automobiles, etc. Silicone products are also increasingly closely related to our lives and work.
The silicone industry is developing rapidly in China, and the usage of silicone will exceed hundreds of tons by 2014. In terms of silicone product applications, due to the continuous updates of mobile phones, the corresponding phone cases are also updated quickly, so there is also a high demand for silicone. In European and American countries, silicone is widely used in kitchenware due to its non-toxic, harmless, and environmentally friendly characteristics. Looking at domestic silicone manufacturers, the quality of their products varies, with the majority being low-end products that lack innovation and design. They mainly produce products through imitation. The production environment of many manufacturers is also uneven, and many still rely on family workshops for production. As a result, the competitiveness of domestic silicone products in international high-end products is not strong. The development of silicone products will become more and more mature, and the future development will be more finely differentiated and high-end. The lack of high-end products for domestic enterprises is exactly what we need to make up for, especially in medical silicone products, which are basically monopolized by foreign enterprises
