Organosilicon has a Si-O bond as the main chain structure, and the side chain is connected with various other organic groups through silicon atoms. The bond energy of Si-O bond in silicone is much larger than that of C-C bond, so the thermal stability of silicone products is high, and the chemical bonds of molecules are not broken or decomposed under high temperature (or radiation irradiation).

It is resistant to high and low temperatures and can be used in a wide temperature range. At the same time, there is no double bond in the main chain, and it is not easy to be decomposed by ultraviolet light and ozone. The special composition and molecular structure make it integrate the functions of organic matter and inorganic matter, so that it has excellent high and low temperature resistance, weather resistance, electrical insulation, biocompatibility, etc.

Silicone materials have been widely used in civil fields such as construction, electrical and electronic, chemical industry, etc., and even have a large number of applications in aviation, cutting-edge technology, military technology departments and other fields.

For example, it can show excellent characteristics when applied to outer space with extreme conditions or extremely cold and hot Siberia or Sahara. Silicone has become an irreplaceable part of automotive adhesives due to its excellent heat resistance, cold resistance, electrical insulation and other excellent properties.

The current trend of the automobile industry lies in new energy vehicles, which is also the future development direction. The plug-in hybrid vehicle and battery-powered electric vehicle (EV) market is expected to grow exponentially over the next few years.

But there are still many factors that can affect the realization of this potential, including the industry's ability to meet consumer expectations for performance and price. This will challenge battery makers to design smaller, lighter and cheaper high-capacity lithium-ion battery packs.

With better thermal control, these higher-energy-density battery packs can deliver more abundant, longer-lasting energy. Manufacturers and designers of other EV components, including battery management systems, power control units, DC/DC converters, and electric motors, will face many of the same thermal management, assembly, and maintenance challenges. In view of the existing application of silicone in the automotive industry, silicone practitioners have made a lot of exploration into whether it can be used in power batteries.
