Silicone products accompanied by the development needs of national defense and military industry was born, because of its high performance and high price is considered a "noble" products. However, with the production of organic silicon monomer technology breakthrough, excess capacity, silicones prices reached historic lows, plus silicone materials applications gradually expanded, and in some areas began to replace petroleum-based materials. Of approximately 70% silicone material is silicone rubber. Silicone rubber silicone is represented by the "noble" to "civilian" has become a truly cost-effective materials.
High becomes the cheapest
The production of organic silicon monomer in the last century has long been one of the few multinational monopoly prices. With the industrial production of organic silicon monomer breakthrough, China has become the largest producer of organic silicon monomer, the organic silicon production costs and prices have fallen significantly.
