Electron

China's electronics industry purchases about 1.1 billion yuan worth of silicone products each year, accounting for 43% of Asia's purchases of silicone products. Although organic silicon is used in many different electronic products, it is essential for China's telecommunications and information technology sector, which has a large market share. Silicones can also be seen in semiconductors and LEDs.

In consumer electronics and commercial applications, silicone sealants, adhesives and coatings can be used to produce circuits, connectors, capacitors, coils, transistors, and tubes in electronic devices. Silicones protect different electronic components from heat, shock and pollution. As electronic devices become smaller, more portable, and more complex, silicones are critical to ensuring the long-term stability and performance of the following devices:

Mobile phone
MP3 player
tablet
Global Positioning System
Hearing aid
LED lights

Silicones also help to save energy in electric lamps.

In 2020, the sales of Chinese LED products are expected to reach 70% of the total sales of the lighting industry, which means that 340 billion kilowatt-hours of power savings and 306 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions reduction

LED lights consume 90% less energy than traditional lamps

The use of LED products reduces the light loss of LEDs, improves brightness and durability, and enhances reliability and protection, which can reduce product replacement rates, maintenance costs and the generation of solid waste.

Overall, silicones help improve the energy efficiency, connectivity, mobility and power of electronic products.
