1. Electrical Insulation: Silicone gel has high dielectric strength, effectively preventing electrical short circuits.

2. Thermal Management: Its good thermal conductivity helps dissipate heat, improving operational stability.

3. Mechanical Protection: The gel's flexibility absorbs vibrations and shocks, protecting internal components.

4. Environmental Protection: Silicone gel exhibits excellent weather resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments.

Current research focuses on optimizing silicone gel formulations to enhance thermal conductivity, adhesion, and high-temperature resistance while reducing curing shrinkage. Additionally, developing customized silicone gel materials for specific applications (such as new energy vehicles, wind power, and photovoltaics) is a key direction for future development.
