To sum up, because organic silica gel has many excellent physical and chemical properties, it can be used in many occasions and environments, and it will definitely play an important role in more fields. In the future, organic silica gel will achieve rapid development in the following aspects.

(1) Improvement of curing method: development from traditional thermal curing to radiation curing and microwave curing. Currently, UV-curable silicone anti-sticking agents and optical fiber coatings have made important progress.

(2) The introduction of functional groups: replacing the commonly used methyl and phenyl groups with amino groups, epoxy groups, allyl groups, hydroxyl groups, etc., can change the physical properties and chemical reactivity of organosilica gels in a wide range.

(3) Composite use with other materials: Although silicone has many excellent properties, it also has disadvantages such as low strength and poor adhesion to the substrate. It is grafted and blocked by epoxy, acrylic, polyurethane and other resins. Modification of the copolymerization method can achieve the effect of complementary performance.
