SILICON METAL

Aluminium alloys ã€€

    In aluminium alloys, silicon increases intensity, toughness and casting property. End-user includes the automotive industry, construction and civil engineering, etc.

 Electronics  

   More than *0 percent of all electronic components are based on silicon metal supplied to companies that produce polysilicones (polycrystalline silicone), which are used in the manufacturer of semi-conductors such as microchips for computers, metal plates for solar panels, and so-called opto-electronic components for communication systems.

 

Silicone 　

　In the chemical industry, silicon metal is used to produce silicone, a synthetic polymer (a string of long molecular chains) with special and varying properties. Silicones have stable thermal properties, which are resistant to decomposition and chemicals, and are biologically adaptable. A distinction is made between hard, pliable and liquid silicone. Among others, silicones are used in lubricants, sealing compounds, cosmetics, textiles, electrical insulation materials for medical equipment, and car parts.
