New National Standard for Power Banks to Drive Rapid Growth o
Keywords: Power bank GB standard, thermal interface materials, electronic silicone, safety upgrade
On April 8, 2026, industry experts further interpreted the newly released national standard for mobile power banks GB/T 42288-2026, pointing out that it will bring clear incremental demand to the field of electronic-grade silicone thermal interface materials.
The core impacts are as follows:
-
The new standard has significantly improved the requirements for safety, temperature control, overheating protection, and service life, which will be officially implemented on April 1, 2027.
-
To meet stringent heat dissipation and insulation indicators, consumer electronics manufacturers will widely use silicone-based thermal pads, thermal gap fillers, and heat-conducting adhesives.
-
Silicone materials have the comprehensive advantages of high insulation, flexibility, high and low temperature resistance, and good thermal conductivity, making them the preferred solution for internal thermal management of lithium battery packs.
It is expected that starting from the fourth quarter of 2026, demand for high-performance electronic-grade silicone will enter a stage of accelerated release, becoming a new growth engine for the structural upgrading of the silicone industry.
