Looking into The Silicone Rubber history

time2012/07/11

Looking for a better motor and generator silicone rubber insulating material. The resin-impregnated glass fiber is the most advanced materials in the country.Heat-resistant glass, phenolic resin, does not assume the new experience of the motor, the higher temperature. Corning Glass Company and General Electric Company, for the first time the synthesis of organosilicon polymers, to show their line of work, surveys, testing, heat-resistant material of the polysiloxane resin adhesive, commercial production.
Corning Glass and Dow Chemical was founded in 1943, the joint venture production of this new material class. As a new, more detailed studies, the unique properties of silicone products, they are more widespread use of ideas and GE opened in 1947, the production potential of its own silicon factories. Wacker Silicones production began in 1947 in Europe. Japanese companies Shin-Etsu Chemical Industry in 1953 to start the mass production of organic silicon. These companies are still oligopoly, including the major competitors of the silicone industry.
