Silicone Production Cost Report

Silicone or polysiloxane is any diverse class of resins, fluids, or elastomers on the basis of polymerized siloxanes. These substances have molecules comprising chains formed of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms. It is found in various forms, including fluids, liquid silicone elastomers (LSR) and high-consistency rubbers (HCR).

Silicone has chemical inertness, is resistant to water and oxidation, as well as the ability to be stable at high as well as low temperatures. They have low toxicity, resistance to oxygen, ozone, natural ageing (oxidation, UV), fire, low smoke emission and toxic fumes, self-protection, the caramelization of ashes and ultraviolet (UV) light, can repel water and form watertight seals, excellent electrically insulative and conductive properties, high gas permeability and high thermal stability (from -80 °C to 250 °C) as well as makes for a superior solvent for organic compounds. Other properties of the material include great hydrophobia (beading effect), adhesion properties, biocompatibility, skin safety, flexibility, enhanced lubrication and gas permeability performance, ease of the process, great spread and coating capabilities.

Silicone has a wide range of commercial applications ranging from lubricating greases and biomedical implants (such as breast implants) to electrical-wire insulation which is driving the market's growth. As silicones have various forms, it is ideal for various industrial applications. Due to its versatile quality, it can be used in many products like fluids, silicone gels or silicon glue, rubbers and resins.

It is also used in computers (keypads, keyboards and copier rollers) and engineered spacecraft, moulds, and in renewable energy like wind turbines and solar panels to improve the efficiency, durability and performance of solar panels and photovoltaic devices. Silicones are used in cosmetics, shampoos and conditioners to hold the lustre and colour of the compound, offering improved shine. It finds application as a construction material for erecting residential and commercial buildings preventing moisture and bacteria. Other uses of the product include kitchenware, silicone-enhanced paints, sportswear and goods, and many kinds of toys and lubricants.
