Creating Tomorrow's Solutions



Growth markets such as the energy and electrical engineering sectors need optimized processes and products fit for the future. WACKER has been supplying them with time-tested solutions for decades.

Energy & ElectronicsEnergy & Electronics

Electronics & Lighting

Silicones ensure that electrical and electronic components function reliably and safely. Used in a wide range of industrial applications, silicones bond and seal. They thus afford reliable protection against external influences such as dirt, moisture, radiation and heat.

Electrical Insulation Industry

Thanks to their electrically insulating, heat-resistant, water-repellent, weather- and radiation-resistant properties, silicone resins are the preferred binders for innovative electrical insulation materials.

Epitaxy

epitaxy
Some electronic devices need silicon with an absolutely perfect wafer surface and a resistivity up to 1,000 times higher than that inside the wafer. Here, ultrapure gases are essential for selectively modifying the surface properties.

Transmission & Distribution Industry

Modern power transmission and distribution networks must offer high performance while being cost-effective. POWERSIL® silicone elastomers, fluids and gels are based on customer-oriented R&D, thus offering an impressive product portfolio.

Wires & Cables

cables
Silicone rubber is used as an insulating material in a great many industrial-grade cables and lines. It is the preferred choice whenever a high standard of electrical, mechanical and safety properties is needed.

Crystal Growing

ingot pulling crystal growth
Semiconductor devices and solar cells need hyperpure, ordered-structure silicon for optimum functionality. The specific ingot-pulling process will determine the individual properties required in a particular polysilicon grade.

Aviation & Aerospace

ESA-compliant, low-outgassing adhesives from WACKER – that remain flexible at any temperature and are radiation resistant – provide secure bonding of solar cells and cover glasses in solar generators.

Chemical-Mechanical Planarizing

planarizing
The precision of the individual stages in semiconductor-device production crucially affects how well these devices function. HDK® pyrogenic silica is a vital processing auxiliary.

Renewable Energies

renewable energy
Photovoltaics and wind, solar-thermal and geothermal power cover our growing energy needs with little environmental or climate impact. Silicones are used in these types of energy farms because of their high weathering and radiation resistance, and make a vital contribution to sustainable energy production.

Silanes for the Electronics Industry

SEMICOSIL® silanes are key materials for the manufacture of existing and next-generation electronic devices. Their high purity and an extremely low concentration of metal impurities make them ideal products for all processes in the semiconductor sector.

Thermal Insulation

HDK® pyrogenic silica from WACKER offers excellent thermal insulation within a very broad temperature range and is therefore the preferred material for producing highly efficient thermal insulation systems.
