The application fields of organic silicone are gradually broadened and the output continues to grow.

Organic silica gel is an organic silicon compound. The basic structural unit is mainly composed of silicon-oxygen chain links. Its side chains are connected to various other organic groups through silicon atoms. It contains both “organic groups” and “inorganic structures”. “, possessing the functions of inorganic matter and the characteristics of organic matter at the same time. Compared with other polymer materials, organic silica gel has functions such as water resistance, corrosion resistance, high and low temperature resistance, and ultraviolet resistance. With the gradual advancement of production technology, the types of organic silica gel are increasingly abundant, which can be roughly divided into high-temperature vulcanized silica gel, liquid silica gel, room temperature vulcanized silica gel, etc.

From the upstream of the industrial chain, organic silica gel is mainly composed of raw materials such as methyl chloride, industrial silicon, silicon ore and related catalysts. Among them, industrial silicone has become the product with the largest production cost of organic silica gel. Industrial silicon has excellent comprehensive properties, a wide range of applications, and stable market demand. Against this background, my country’s industrial silicon production has gradually increased. According to data released by the my country Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, my country’s industrial silicon output will be 3.35 million tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of about 24%. As my country’s industrial silicon production gradually increases, this provides sufficient raw materials for the development of the organic silica gel market.

As a chemical material, organic silica gel is widely used in markets such as electronic appliances, construction, electric power and new energy, industrial additives, textiles, and medical care. Among them, construction has become the largest application field of organic silicone, with a market share of 22.8%; followed by electronic appliances, with a market share of 19.2%; and third place is electric power and new energy, with a market share of 17.9%.

According to the “2023-2027 In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report on the Organic Silicone Industry” released by the Industrial Research Center, in recent years In 2008, my country’s economy and society developed rapidly, residents’ income levels gradually increased, quality of life requirements gradually increased, and the penetration rate of electronic and electrical appliances gradually increased. As an important raw material for the production of electronic appliances, organic silica gel’s market demand is gradually increasing. As my country’s organic silicone production technology gradually advances, product performance gradually improves, traditional materials are gradually replaced, and market demand gradually increases. Against this background, my country’s organic silica gel production has gradually increased. In 2022, my country’s organic silicone production will be 1.486 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 7.2%.

Industry analysts said that my country’s organic silicone market concentration is relatively high, and leading companies are gradually emerging. my country’s larger organic silicone companies mainly include Silicon Bao Technology, Xin’an Co., Ltd., Huitian New Materials, Jiadi New Materials, Meigao Group, Sanyou Chemical, Dongyue Silicon Materials, Anpin New Materials, etc. Among them, Dongyue Silicon Materials has the largest market share, accounting for 18.4%; followed by Silicon Technology, accounting for 13.2%. As my country’s organic silicone production capacity structure is gradually adjusted and backward production capacity is gradually eliminated, its market concentration is expected to increase in the future.
