Shaping the Future with Silicones - Elkem Showcases Green Smart Technologies at the 8th China International Import Expo

Smart Enablement for Embodied Intelligence Across Scenarios

Elkem provides customized, highly reliable silicone solutions that support embodied intelligence—a cutting-edge technology integrating perception, cognition, and action. These solutions help transition AI from virtual to physical applications.  Elkem’s comprehensive protection material matrix includes: BLUESIL™ ESA 7760 thermal gels, BLUESIL™ ESA 6760 potting compounds, CAF™ ET 6930 thermal flame-retardant sealants.  BLUESIL™ ESA 7790 ultra-high thermal conductivity encapsulant ensures stable operation of high-performance chips under heavy loads. High-performance silicone rubber enhances tactile sensors with low hardness and high resilience for accurate signal transmission. SILBIONE™ RTV materials offer excellent skin compatibility and detail reproduction for realistic human-machine interaction.

To address increasing thermal challenges in AI computing centers, Elkem is also developing immersion cooling technologies for stable and efficient operations.

 

 

Precision and Safety in Medical Applications

Elkem’s high-performance medical-grade silicones offer outstanding biocompatibility for long-term safety in implantable devices such as artificial joints, neurostimulators, and pacemakers.  The SILBIONE™ Biomedical HCR / LSR M series supports molding, extrusion, and injection processes, meeting stringent standards with excellent processing stability.

SILBIONE™ materials are widely used in peristaltic pump tubing, biopharmaceutical extrusion tubes, and molded components. Their high resilience, strength, elasticity recovery, and low extractables make them ideal for flexible, pressure-resistant tubing in high-purity applications.

 

 

Gentle and Effective Skincare for Youth

Elkem targets the emerging and high-potential segment of teen skincare. Its innovative silicone formulations address key concerns: oil-control moisturizing cream using MIRASIL™ D-DML PLUS for quick-drying and oil balance; high-efficiency sunscreen with PURESIL™ ORG 0515 for a clear, non-whitening physical sunblock and breathable concealer base with PURESIL™ ESG 03 for natural coverage without clogging pores.

 

Sustainable Innovation with Circular Silicones

Elkem leads the green transformation of silicone materials with its Sircle™ circular silicone product line, integrating bio-based and recycled materials to reduce fossil resource dependency and carbon footprint across the product lifecycle.  These solutions help customers meet evolving environmental regulations and reduce Scope 3 emissions, supporting the growing demand for low-carbon circular materials.

Elkem will also showcase its innovative materials across various industries. In the low-altitude aircraft sector, Elkem provides comprehensive material solutions for power systems, electronic components, and cabin interiors, significantly enhancing overall performance and safety. In the new energy field, its advanced silicone technologies support key applications such as battery packaging and charging systems. For the construction industry, Elkem offers high-performance green sealants that contribute to sustainable building practices and support the sector’s transformation and upgrade.

Driven by innovation and technology, Elkem continues to resonate with the Chinese market, empowering quality living and industry growth.  During the expo, Elkem’s technical experts will be available at Booth A3-01 in Hall 4.1 to share the latest developments and answer product-related questions.  We warmly welcome you to visit Elkem’s booth and explore the endless possibilities of silicones materials!
