Deep collaboration among industry, academia and research has led to multiple breakthroughs in the cutting-edge modification technology of dimethylsilicone oil. 

1.The research institutes have collaborated with the industries, and the pace of new material research and development has continued to accelerate.
Domestic chemical research institutions have deepened their cooperation with the production end, establishing a long-term research, education and industry collaboration platform. They are focusing on three core directions: modification, purification and degradation of silicone oil, and conducting continuous experiments. They have abandoned the previous model of research and development being disconnected from the market. They are conducting targeted research based on the real usage pain points in the downstream sectors such as new energy, biomedicine, and environmental-friendly daily chemicals, shortening the cycle from laboratory to industrial production-scale production. Several new types of modified silicone oil have successfully completed pilot tests. 

2. The research and development of bio-based silicone oil has been successfully implemented, marking a breakthrough in the environmentally friendly modification route.
Progress has been made in the technology of preparing bio-based dimethyl silicone oil using renewable raw materials. By replacing traditional fossil raw materials with plant-based silicon materials, the final product retains all the characteristics of silicone oil, such as hydrophobicity, lubrication, and stability. At the same time, it can be naturally degraded, significantly reducing environmental cumulative pollution. The VOC indicators and biocompatibility of this product have been comprehensively upgraded, perfectly adapting to the high-end hair care and medical beauty consumable fields, aligning with the global trend of environmental-friendly materials. Currently, small-scale trial production has been initiated. 

3. The narrow distribution purification technology has been matured, and precision industrial oils have achieved domestic production.
The stable and mass-produced high-precision molecular weight narrow distribution purification process can precisely control the molecular weight range of silicone oil. The viscosity uniformity and high-temperature stability of the products have been significantly improved. This type of silicone oil can be used in strict scenarios such as lubrication of precision instruments, cleaning of chip manufacturing processes, and damping of aerospace equipment. For a long time, it relied on overseas imports. Now, the domestic products' indicators have reached the standards of international leading levels, gradually entering the high-end precision manufacturing supply chain, and the import substitution progress has accelerated. 

4. Multi-functional composite modification expands boundaries, and application scenarios are continuously broadening
High-temperature-resistant, flame-retardant, and conductive composite modified dimethyl silicone oil has been successfully developed one after another, breaking the limitations of traditional silicone oil's single performance. The composite silicone oil has been put into practical use in new scenarios such as heat insulation in energy storage equipment, insulation of high-voltage components, and outdoor anti-corrosion coatings, continuously expanding the application scope of silicone oil. The industry generally predicts that functional modified silicone oil will become the growth driver in the future, and technological innovation will continue to lead industrial upgrading.
