With the tightening of global environmental regulations, traditional silicone oil is facing challenges due to the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Ethyl silicone oil is gradually achieving a "green transformation" through technological upgrades to meet the needs of a low-carbon economy.


Low volatile ethyl silicone oil is a representative product of this transformation. By optimizing the molecular structure and polymerization process, its volatile matter can be reduced to below 0.1%, significantly reducing VOCs emissions. In the field of electronic packaging and coatings, low volatile ethyl silicone oil can avoid the generation of harmful gases at high temperatures, protecting workers' health and environmental safety. In addition, its low odor characteristics also improve the production environment and enhance the user experience.


The development of biobased ethyl silicone oil is another major breakthrough. Using renewable resources such as vegetable oil to synthesize silicone oil can reduce dependence on petroleum and decrease carbon emissions. A research team has successfully converted vegetable oil into ethyl silicone oil precursor through enzyme catalysis technology, which has comparable performance to traditional products and is biodegradable. Although the cost of bio based ethyl silicone oil is currently high, its market competitiveness will gradually increase with the maturity of technology and expansion of scale.
