A silicone resin is an inorganic polymer material that can be molded into fixed objects, films or filaments, such as coating layers over metal surfaces for corrosion prevention. Silicone resin often has high levels of temperature resistance and intermolecular forces.
Silicone resin is primarily used to manufacture heat resistant paint, coil coatings and hybrid resin systems due to its elasticity and heat resistant properties. Vital properties that made silicone resin the preferred source for coating raw materials include its weather resistance, hardness, water-resistance and dielectric properties.
