From Participation to Co-creation: Accelerating Industry Collaboration

Our ongoing collaboration with the Innovation Material Selection Platform highlights SILIKE's transformation from a material supplier to an industry co-creator. By connecting R&D, modification, and end applications, we continuously enhance our insights into emerging industry needs. This approach promotes a shift from point solutions to systematic collaboration, driving technical innovation and building a more sustainable supply chain.

Addressing Global Challenges: The Need for Fluorine-Free Solutions

The global regulatory landscape surrounding PFAS (perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances) is tightening, creating significant challenges for the modified plastics industry. While traditional fluorine-based additives like PTFE wear agents, anti-drip agents, and fluorine-based processing aids (PPA) have delivered excellent performance, they also come with environmental persistence and health risks. Balancing performance with compliance has become a critical challenge for the industry.

SILIKE's Four Fluorine-Free Solutions: Empowering the Green Transformation

As a pioneer in silicone-based applications in plastics, SILIKE leverages over 20 years of expertise in silicone and polymer composites. We've developed four key PFAS-free technologies-Siloxane-free innovations and Silicone-based solutions-to address critical needs like wear resistance, anti-drip, processing aids, and flame retardant dispersion, offering the modified plastics industry a systematic path to fluorine-free transformation.

At the 2026 CIC Innovation Material Selection Conference, SILIKE's R&D, Mr. Luo, introduced the topic: "Fluorine-Free Transformation in Modified Plastics: Full-Scene Substitution Solutions for Fluorinated Polymers." He highlighted the following core Fluorine-Free solutions:
