After 1978, reform and opening up promoted the vigorous development of the national economy. In the organic silicon industry, Chinese-foreign joint ventures and wholly foreign-owned enterprises have sprung up. New technologies, new equipment and new products have been introduced in large numbers and the rapid growth of export products has provided a broad stage for the expansion of organic silicon applications. Especially in the 1980s, the large-scale transfer of world manufacturing to China greatly stimulated the application of organic silicon products and promoted the development of China's organic silicon industry.
This period is a stage of steady development of China's organic silicon industry driven by market demand and application technology progress. Although it takes a long time and the road is full of hardships and twists and turns, it has indeed achieved fruitful results. Methyl monomer breaks through the 10,000-ton production technology bottleneck, silicone building sealants and structural adhesives have been promoted on a large scale, major advances have been made in the production of heat-cured silicone rubber raw rubber, the rapid development of silicone rubber product processing industries, and key products China becomes a major global supplier. In terms of research and development capabilities, production technology and application fields, China has also rapidly narrowed the gap with foreign advanced levels, laying a good foundation for its future development.
