Traditional mineral oils or ordinary silicone oils are highly volatile in the high vacuum of space. This volatility not only causes the lubricant to be rapidly lost, leading to dry friction and seizure of bearings, gears, and other moving pairs, but more seriously, the volatiles can condense into a film on the surfaces of cold optical lenses, solar panels, or infrared sensors, causing optical per

Traditional mineral oil, used as a transformer insulating medium for a century, has low cost as its biggest advantage. However, under conditions of high temperature, high voltage, and prolonged electric fields, mineral oil is highly prone to oxidation, cracking, and polymerization reactions. Not only does this generate acidic substances that corrode internal metal components, but it also produces

While ordinary silicone oil can provide some lubricity, its bond with fibers is weak, resulting in poor wash durability. In contrast, amino or epoxy modified silicone oil has reactive functional groups on its molecular chain that can form strong chemical or physical bonds with the surfaces of various fibers like cotton, polyester, and wool. This treatment not only makes the fabric exceptionally so

In silicon-anode production, nano-silicon particles are surface-modified with silanes (e.g., KH-550, KH-560) to improve compatibility with graphite and binders, mitigating 300% volume expansion during cycling. Each ton of silicon anode consumes 8–12 kg of silane—translating to over 1,600 tons of new silane demand in 2026. Technical hurdles remain: battery-grade silanes require ultra-low mois

Digitalization enhances not just efficiency but quality consistency. In premium production, minor fluctuations in temperature or agitation can affect molecular weight distribution. With thousands of sensors and edge computing nodes, firms achieve millisecond-level adjustments—critical for medical and electronic applications.

Applications include: underfill for wafer-level packaging, potting compounds for power modules, optical silicones for automotive cameras, and buffer layers for flexible OLED displays. These require extreme purity—metal ions <1 ppb, volatiles <0.1%—and certifications like JEDEC or AEC-Q200.
