The fluorosilicone rubber industry is entering a period of explosive growth, with technological breakthroughs in multiple fields reshaping the industry landscape

1.The demand for new energy vehicles has soared, and battery sealing has become a core growth point
With the global penetration rate of new energy vehicles exceeding 35%, the application of fluorosilicone rubber in the sealing field of power batteries has witnessed explosive growth. Data shows that in 2025, the demand for fluorosilicone rubber as sealing materials for battery packs of new energy vehicles will increase by 41% year-on-year, and the usage of fluorosilicone rubber per new energy vehicle will be 3 to 4 times higher than that of traditional fuel vehicles. This growth is mainly attributed to the urgent demand for high-temperature and electrolyte resistant materials due to the increase in energy density of power batteries, as well as the upgrading of sealing technology brought about by the popularization of 800V high-voltage platforms. Industry predictions suggest that by 2030, the market size of fluorosilicone rubber in the new energy vehicle sector will exceed 2.8 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate of 12.9%.

2. Medical-grade products have achieved domestic substitution, and high-end application scenarios have continued to expand
In the field of medical equipment, domestic fluorosilicone rubber is accelerating its replacement of imported products. With its excellent biocompatibility and resistance to damp heat sterilization, fluorosilicone rubber has been widely used in high-end medical devices such as artificial organs and pharmaceutical catheters. The market size of medical-grade fluorosilicone rubber is expected to exceed 1.2 billion yuan in 2025, with the growth rate of sub-sectors such as artificial valves and drainage tubes exceeding 15%. Domestic enterprises have successfully developed food-grade fluorosilicone rubber O-rings that meet FDA certification through technological breakthroughs, breaking the long-term import monopoly. The product performance has reached the international advanced level.

3. Environmental protection policies have forced technological upgrades, and green production processes have become mainstream
The increasingly strict global environmental protection regulations are driving the fluorosilicone rubber industry towards a green transformation. The EU REACH regulation's restrictions on perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) have prompted enterprises to accelerate the development of low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) products. Leading domestic enterprises have reduced carbon emissions in the production process by more than 30% by introducing solvent-free synthesis technology. Meanwhile, the circular economy model is gradually being promoted within the industry. It is expected that the market share of recycled fluorosilicone rubber will reach 8% by 2025, and the carbon emissions throughout the material life cycle will be reduced by 60% through a closed-loop recycling system. At the policy level, China's "dual carbon" goals and the "Guidance Catalogue for the First Batch Application Demonstration of Key New Materials" clearly list fluorosilicone rubber as a priority development material, and the fiscal subsidy ratio has been raised to 5%.

4. Technological innovation breaks through performance limits and unleashing the potential for applications in extreme environments
Continuous innovation in the field of materials science is driving the continuous expansion of the performance boundaries of fluorosilicone rubber. The temperature resistance range of the newly developed hydrogenated fluorosilicone rubber has been expanded from -60 ℃ to 200℃ to -70 ℃ to 250℃. Under a high-temperature environment of 250℃, the material's lifespan is extended by more than 30%. This breakthrough makes its application in extreme environments such as aerospace engine seals and deep-sea exploration equipment possible. In addition, the application of nano-filling modification technology has enhanced the radiation resistance of fluorosilicone rubber by 2.3 times, providing reliable solutions for special fields such as nuclear energy equipment and satellite components.
