Silicones in paints & coatings are a broad category of specialty and high performance materials that include reactive silanes, silicone polymers and silicone resins. They are used in wide range of consumer and industrial applications.

Silicones are useful inputs in industrial as well as decorative paints. They work well as water resistance overcoats, additives for acrylics, binders for protective coatings. As a result, improve film flexibility and provide resistance against moisture, heat, cold, staining and UV radiation. They can also be leveraged as dispersion or wetting agents and de-foamers for water based or solvent based coatings.
