Introduction
Under the global carbon neutrality background, the energy consumption and emission issues in the traditional production of silicone resins have drawn much attention. The research and development of environmentally friendly silicone resins is becoming a new track in the chemical industry.
1. Innovative directions of environmentally friendly silicone resin
Raw material innovation: Use bio-based silanes (such as silica extracted from rice husks) to replace petroleum raw materials.
Process optimization: Low-temperature curing technology reduces energy consumption, and water-based silicone resin lowers the use of organic solvents
Degradability: Through molecular design, the controllable degradation of some silicone resins is achieved, reducing microplastic pollution.
2. Application Cases
In the field of new energy: It is used for photovoltaic module packaging, enhancing the lifespan of solar panels without pollution.
Consumer product upgrade: Food-grade applications such as baby pacifiers and kitchenware coatings, meeting FDA standards.
3D printing: Light-curing silicone resin ink, supporting precise printing of complex structures and reducing material waste.
Challenges and Prospects
Although the cost of environmentally friendly silicone resin is still higher than that of traditional products, policy promotion and large-scale production are expected to accelerate its popularization. In the future, nanocomposite silicone resins (such as graphene-reinforced types) may further expand their performance boundaries.
