What is Silicone Film?

Silicone film is a thin, flexible, and transparent sheet made from silicone, a synthetic polymer derived from silicon, oxygen, and other elements. This versatile material offers excellent temperature resistance, chemical stability, and electrical insulation properties. Silicone films are commonly used in various applications, including electronics, medical devices, aerospace, and food packaging. They act as protective barriers, providing moisture resistance and electrical insulation while remaining pliable and durable. Due to their non-toxic and hypoallergenic nature, silicone films are safe for direct contact with human skin and sensitive products. Their wide range of uses makes them indispensable in modern industries and consumer products.
