Collaboration among industry, academia and research has intensified, accelerating the process of replacing imported fluorosilicone oil with domestic products.
1.Deep integration of industry, academia and research accelerates the transformation of innovation achievements.
The industry has continuously deepened the collaborative innovation model of industry-academia-research. Research institutions and industrial entities have jointly established innovation consortia, focusing on the core technology research and transformation of fluorosilicone oils. They have solved technical problems such as molecular structure design and the development of new catalytic systems. By jointly building R&D platforms and pilot production bases, they accelerate the industrialization of new synthesis processes and modification technologies, shorten the transformation cycle of innovation achievements from the laboratory to the market, and promote the upgrading of the fluorosilicone oil industry towards high-end and refined directions.
2. Import substitution of high-end products and enhancement of core competitiveness
Domestic fluorosilicone oil enterprises have increased investment in the research and development of high-end products. They have gradually broken through technical barriers in areas such as high purity, low volatility, and customized modification. The performance of domestic high-end fluorosilicone oil products has approached the international advanced level, and the process of import substitution has continued to accelerate. Data shows that the proportion of high-end fluorosilicone oil products has increased from 35.2% in 2024 to 41.8% in 2025. The market share of domestic products in the fields of electronic and electrical equipment, and high-end equipment has steadily increased, effectively alleviating the situation of relying on imports for high-end products, and the trade deficit has shown a narrowing trend.
3. Optimization of Export Structure and Expansion of Global Market Influence
The domestic fluorosilicone oil exports have performed outstandingly, with the export volume continuously increasing. It is expected that the export volume will reach 21,000 tons in 2025, representing a year-on-year growth of 28.4%. The export value will amount to 290 million US dollars. The export product structure has been continuously optimized, shifting from traditional general-purpose products to mid-to-high-end customized products. The main export destinations include Southeast Asia, Europe, North America, and other regions. This has gradually broken the monopoly of enterprises from Europe, Japan, and the United States in the global high-end fluorosilicone oil market, enhancing the global market influence of China's fluorosilicone oil industry.
4. Well-developed talent and innovation system enhances industry growth momentum
The industry has increased its efforts in talent cultivation and research and development investment. By 2025, the proportion of R&D investment in the fluorosilicone oil industry's sales revenue reached 4.8%, higher than the average level of the chemical industry. Leading enterprises' R&D investment accounted for more than 6%. At the same time, by establishing talent cultivation platforms, introducing high-end technical talents, and improving the innovation incentive mechanism, a multi-level and all-round innovation system has been gradually constructed. A total of multiple core technologies have been overcome and several related patents have been obtained, injecting strong momentum for the sustainable development of the fluorosilicone oil industry.
