Definition and Composition: A Fusion of Nanotechnology and Silicone
Silicone nano-ceramic coatings are composite materials formed by combining nano-ceramic particles with silicone resin. The core of this coating lies in using nanotechnology to refine the ceramic particles to the 1-100 nanometer scale before compounding them with a silicone matrix. This structure imparts dual properties to the coating: the nano-ceramic particles provide high hardness, high-temperature resistance, and chemical inertness, while the silicone resin enhances flexibility, adhesion, and weather resistance. For example, the KNM1000 series coating developed by Beijing Naimer Co., Ltd. achieves breakthrough performance by combining silicone with nano-ceramic powder, achieving high-temperature resistance of 1500°C and a hardness of 8-9H (pencil hardness).

Performance Advantages: Pushing the Limits of Traditional Materials
High-Temperature Resistance: The combination of the heat resistance of silicone resin and the stability of nano-ceramics enables the coating to withstand temperatures exceeding 600°C for extended periods, with some products even capable of short-term use at 1500°C. This makes it an ideal protective material for high-temperature equipment such as boiler water walls and coal-fired power plant pulverizing systems. Wear and Corrosion Resistance: The dense arrangement of nano-ceramic particles significantly increases the coating's hardness, while the silicone matrix absorbs impact energy and reduces crack propagation. Experimental data shows that its wear resistance is over three times that of traditional coatings, and it has withstood salt spray tests for over 2,000 hours, making it suitable for use in highly corrosive environments such as marine engineering and chemical pipelines.
Environmentally Friendly and Non-Toxic: Unlike traditional fluorine- and chromium-containing coatings, silicone nano-ceramic coatings use water as a solvent, emit no volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and comply with EU RoHS standards. They are widely used in food-grade non-stick pans, medical devices, and other applications.

Application Areas: Comprehensive coverage from industrial to residential applications.
Industrial Protection: In high-temperature, highly corrosive environments such as metallurgical kilns, chimneys, and reactors, the coating can extend equipment life by 3-5 times, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. For example, after application at a steel plant, boiler coking was reduced by 60% and thermal efficiency increased by 15%. Consumer kitchenware: Replacing traditional Teflon coatings, its high-temperature resistance (no yellowing at 500°C) and abrasion resistance (over 100,000 pull-out tests) meet diverse cooking needs, including frying, stir-frying, and grilling, without releasing harmful substances.
Emerging Fields: In new energy vehicle battery packs and aerospace thermal protection systems, coatings enhance equipment safety through insulation and heat isolation, becoming a key material solution.
Technological Breakthrough: From Laboratory to Industrialization

The development of organosilicon nanoceramic coatings has undergone phases of material modification and process optimization. For example, the introduction of a silazane polymer precursor has enabled a high-temperature conversion mechanism for the coating to SiCN ceramic, further improving its temperature resistance and density. Currently, domestic companies have mastered the core formula and spray coating process, achieving product performance that reaches internationally advanced levels, while reducing costs by 40% compared to imported products. This is driving the large-scale application of this material in new energy sectors such as wind power and photovoltaics.
