The 3rd Organic Silicon Technology and Application Innovation Forum will be held in Shanghai from June 18th to 20th, 2025. At the same time, a series of activities such as the State Grid's "Development of Long Service Life Composite Insulators" seminar and the Organic Silicon "15th Five Year Plan" seminar will be held. The forum, with the theme of "Silicon Heart Unites, Leading the Way", gathers more than 400 experts, scholars, and business representatives from around the world to explore the innovative applications of silicon-based materials in new energy, healthcare, electronics, and other fields.


Technological breakthrough: from "industrial monosodium glutamate" to "high-end material heart"
On the forum, new silicon-based materials became the focus. ZTE showcased the application of organic silicon thermal conductive materials in 5G base stations, with a 40% increase in heat dissipation efficiency compared to traditional materials; The medical grade liquid silicone (LSR) developed by the Zhejiang University team has passed clinical testing of insulin pumps and is expected to break through the barriers of medical device certification in the next five years; The "Twin monomer photo induced twin polymerization" technology proposed by Tongji University has increased the efficiency of organic silicon polymerization reaction by three times and reduced the cost by 50%. In addition, green technologies such as bio based silicone rubber and silicon-based immersion coolant have attracted attention. The sugarcane based methanol project jointly developed by Shandong Hesheng Silicon Industry and Brazil has successfully solved the problem of "methanol metal silicon" price linkage.


Industrial upgrading: consensus on high-end, intelligent, and green transformation
At the "15th Five Year Plan" discussion meeting, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology proposed three major goals: firstly, carbon reduction will force technological leap, and the energy consumption of newly built single units should be 20% lower than the industry average; Secondly, breakthroughs have been made in the transformation towards high-end products, reducing the dependence on imported electronic grade silicone oil to below 30%; The third is mandatory legislation for circular economy, with a silicone rubber recycling rate of 60% for building demolition by 2028. At the enterprise level, Dongyue Group has achieved a 34% reduction in consumption through the upgrade path of chloromethane method, while Silicon Treasure Technology's "Semiconductor Material Certification Accelerator" has helped silane coupling agents enter TSMC's supply chain. Chenhua Group's 8500 ton silicone rubber production capacity has all entered the flexible skin track of humanoid robots.


Cross border integration: empowering future industries with silicon-based materials
The forum has set up a "Organic Silicon+AI" innovation laboratory, incubating 17 patents, including cross-border products such as shape memory silicone rubber artificial muscles and silicon-based flexible sensors. The silicon-based immersion coolant launched by Ningbo Runhe High tech Materials has been applied to NVIDIA GPU clusters, reducing single cabinet power consumption by 15%; The polydimethylsiloxane glass body developed by Wuhan University provides a lightweight optical solution for AR/VR devices. Experts attending the meeting pointed out that with the technology iteration cycle shortened to 18 months, the organic silicon industry is shifting from "cost competition" to "scenario definition rights" competition, and the fields of medical health, intelligent materials, and biobased industries will become the next trillion level market.


Regional Practice: Wuda District's "Single Champion" Leads Transformation
During the forum, Wuda District in Inner Mongolia was repeatedly mentioned as a typical case. Relying on its resource endowment, the district has cultivated 8 autonomous region level manufacturing industry champions. Among them, Inner Mongolia Hengye Chengorganic Silicon's methyl vinyl silicone rubber occupies 16% of the national market share, and Inner Mongolia Xingfa Technology's glyphosate is exported to 116 countries and regions. Wuda District has built a full industry chain of "silicon ore monomer terminal products" through "chain investment promotion", and the output value of the organic silicon industry will exceed 20 billion yuan in 2024, becoming a benchmark for the transformation of resource-based cities.
