3. Functional diversification
Intelligent responsiveness:
Intelligent materials are an important development direction of future materials science, and silicone oil will also develop in the direction of intelligent responsiveness. For example, silicone oil with functions such as temperature response, pH response, and light response is developed to enable it to automatically adjust its performance according to changes in the external environment. For example, when the temperature rises, the viscosity of silicone oil decreases, achieving automatic heat dissipation; when the pH value changes, the solubility of silicone oil changes, achieving intelligent controlled release, etc. This intelligent responsive silicone oil will have broad application prospects in the fields of smart sensors, smart drug delivery, and smart lubrication.

Multifunctional composite:
In order to meet the various needs of silicone oil in different fields, silicone oil in the future will develop in the direction of multifunctional composite. For example, silicone oil is composited with other functional materials, such as nanomaterials, polymer materials, etc., to prepare composite materials with multiple functions. For example, nano-silicon dioxide is composited with silicone oil to prepare silicone oil composite materials with enhanced mechanical properties and thermal stability; polymers are composited with silicone oil to prepare silicone oil composite materials with good flexibility and processability. This multifunctional composite silicone oil will provide more options and solutions for applications in various fields.

Customized service:
With the continuous segmentation and personalization of market demand, customized silicone oil products will become a future development trend. Enterprises will provide customized silicone oil products and solutions according to the specific needs of customers to meet the special requirements of different customers for silicone oil performance, specifications, uses, etc. For example, customized silicone oil with specific electrical insulation and heat dissipation properties for specific electronic equipment; customized silicone oil with specific skin feel and stability for specific cosmetic formulas, etc. Customized services will increase the added value and market competitiveness of silicone oil products and bring new opportunities for the development of enterprises.
