2. Green and environmental protection
Biodegradability:
With the continuous enhancement of environmental awareness, biodegradable materials have become a hot topic of research. In the future, silicone oil will develop in the direction of biodegradability. By introducing biodegradable functional groups or using bio-based raw materials, silicone oil can be decomposed by microorganisms in the natural environment to reduce pollution to the environment. For example, developing silicone oil substitutes based on plant oils, or introducing hydrolyzable ester bonds in the molecular structure of silicone oil, etc., to achieve the green and sustainable development of silicone oil.

Low volatility:
The volatility of silicone oil has a certain impact on the environment and human health, especially in indoor environments and confined spaces. In the future, silicone oil will reduce its volatility and reduce the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by improving molecular structure and formula design. For example, using high-viscosity silicone oil, adding volatility inhibitors and other methods can reduce the volatility of silicone oil and improve its safety and environmental protection.

Utilization of renewable resources:
The use of renewable resources to produce silicone oil is one of the future development trends. For example, using plant extracts, biomass waste, etc. as raw materials to prepare silicone oil through chemical synthesis or biological fermentation can not only reduce dependence on traditional petrochemical raw materials, but also reduce production costs and achieve resource recycling and sustainable development.
