With the continuous development of high-tech industries such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, touch display, and smart cars, the material industry has also ushered in a new wave of growth, especially innovative new materials. As the top layer of technological product innovation, in addition to improving product market competitiveness, material innovation is also a key link that must be taken into consideration by enterprises. It is related to the destiny of the enterprise and market sustainability. Today, it includes the United States, China, Japan and South Korea are actively developing new materials industries.


Silicone gels get attention


Among the materials for semiconductors and touch displays, silicon gel is a pivotal new material. It has many of the excellent characteristics of silicon materials and also has the advantages of glue. There are many good things about silicone gels than silicone products. For example, silicone gels have better adaptability, versatility and healing properties. This feature is very suitable for making precision electronic components, displays and automotive products. Waterproof, moisture-proof, gas-proof and so on. It is reported that silicon gel is a kind of frosted glass-like translucent particles, which is insoluble in water and inorganic acids, but soluble in hydrofluoric acid and concentrated caustic soda solution. As a technology leader in the chemical industry, providing products to all key industrial sectors worldwide and actively active in the silicone, polymer, biotechnology and polysilicon markets, WACKER Chemical's recently launched two-component silicone gel products become the industry in 2019 A big innovative material inside.

At the 2019 Shenzhen International All-Touch & Display Exhibition, WACKER Chemical has introduced the new SILGEL®601 CN two-component silicone gel, which has attracted much attention from the industry. According to reports, this product is dedicated to the optical bonding of large-sized screens. The product has excellent adhesion properties and excellent weather resistance. It can be quickly heated and cured without oil leakage. It is suitable for large screens for education and outdoor display. In addition, WACKER Chemical also showed the LUMISIL series of silicone optical bonding water glues, from thermosetting to UV curing, suitable for different coating processes, and can be used in different applications such as automotive, marine and aviation. During the week, the editor of OFweek Display Network had the opportunity to interview Dong Kan, the market manager of silicone industrial solutions of WACKER CHEMICAL (China) Co., Ltd. The schemes have had an in-depth exchange, and the following takes everyone to understand WACKER Chemie's innovative technology and industry accumulation in the display field.


Dong Kan, Marketing Manager of Silicone Industrial Solutions, WACKER CHEMICAL (China) Co., Ltd. said that SILGEL® 601 CN is a flowable, two-component, room-temperature-curing silicone rubber that forms a completely transparent soft gel after curing. The product has a moderate viscosity, high transmittance, low shrinkage, excellent inherent viscosity, and excellent mechanical damping properties. Based on the anti-ultraviolet and high-low temperature resistance of silicone, the product is weather-resistant, yellow-resistant, and has very high reliability.


Compared with similar products, its viscosity will be better. For large-screen bonding products, the adhesive force of the glue itself is very high. WACKER CHEMICAL has a lot of innovative technical support and rich experience in this area. In addition, this product has low permeability oil. Due to the use of WACKER's unique silicone gel technology, SILGEL® 601 CN has better adhesion and does not leak compared with similar silicone optical adhesives on the market. oil. This product can be quickly heated and cured, and is suitable for different bonding processes. It can be either hot-set dry-adhesion, or injection or dispensing.
