Summary: Demand for high-performance LSR (liquid silicone rubber) remains strong; medical-grade and EV thermal management grades are in short supply with 15%–20% premiums. Details: Post-holiday demand for high-end functional silicones rebounded strongly. Medical-grade LSR (ISO 13485-certified, low-cyclic) and thermal conductive LSR (2–8 W/m·K) for EV battery thermal management are tight, commanding 15%–20% market premiums. High-temperature resistant (300°C) and food-grade LSR also have steady overseas orders. Hongye Silicone expanded its high-end portfolio with multiple medical biocompatible and thermal conductive grades, meeting FDA, REACH, and ISO standards.
