Green and low-carbon have become the new direction for the fluorosilicone oil industry. Environmentally friendly products are accelerating their popularization.
Currently, the concept of green and low-carbon has deeply permeated all fields of the chemical industry. The fluorosilicone oil industry actively responds to environmental protection policies, focusing on low-carbon preparation, waste-free production, and degradable improvement. The output of environmentally friendly fluorosilicone oil products is growing rapidly, and the pace of the industry's green transformation is continuously accelerating, achieving a double improvement of ecological and economic benefits.
1. Promotion of low-carbon preparation process: Energy consumption and emissions have significantly decreased
The industry actively promotes the green upgrade of the preparation process. New low-carbon synthesis processes gradually replace traditional high-energy-consuming processes. By optimizing reaction conditions and using efficient catalysts, the unit energy consumption in fluorosilicone oil production processes has decreased by more than 23% compared to traditional processes, and the emissions of wastewater and waste gas have decreased by 31% and 27% respectively. Among them, the continuous synthesis process has achieved large-scale application, significantly reducing material loss in the production process and improving resource utilization efficiency.
2. Rise of solvent-free products: Meeting environmental application requirements
With stricter environmental control, the demand for solvent-free and low-VOCs (volatile organic compounds) products in the downstream sector has soared. Solvent-free fluorosilicone oil products have rapidly emerged, and their market share has increased from 28% last year to 40% this year. These products do not require the addition of organic solvents and have no VOCs emissions during use, and are widely used in indoor coatings, food packaging auxiliary, and surface treatment of children's products, etc., which have high environmental requirements.
3. Progress in degradable modification: Solving the problem of waste disposal
In response to the problem that traditional fluorosilicone oil is difficult to degrade and can cause environmental accumulation, the industry has increased its research and development efforts on degradable modification. By introducing degradable functional groups, fluorosilicone oil products that can slowly degrade in the natural environment have been successfully developed. These products can gradually decompose into harmless substances under the action of microorganisms after the end of their use cycle, effectively solving the problem of environmental pollution caused by fluorosilicone oil waste, and meeting the needs of the development of environmentally friendly industries.
4. Improvement of green standards: Guiding the industry to develop in a standardized manner
Relevant departments have gradually improved the green standards for the fluorosilicone oil industry, clarifying core indicators such as VOCs content, degradation rate, and energy consumption emissions of environmentally friendly fluorosilicone oil. This provides clear guidance for the industry's green transformation. At the same time, a green product certification system has been gradually established. Certified environmentally friendly fluorosilicone oil products can enjoy policy preferences, further promoting enterprises to increase environmental protection investment and accelerating the process of industry green upgrading.
