Siloxane is a chain-like compound composed of silicon and oxygen atoms and is also an important organic silicon compound. Siloxane is a liquid at room temperature and has high volatility, so it can be used as a substitute for silicone in many applications.
Siloxanes have unique physical and chemical properties, making them widely used in fields such as architecture, electronics, medicine, and cosmetics. Especially in the field of construction, siloxanes are used in waterproofing materials, sealing materials, insulation materials, and other aspects. In addition, with the rapid development of the electronics industry, the demand for siloxanes in electronic packaging, circuit board manufacturing, and other areas is also increasing.
