text: According to Scientific American, silicone is a synthetic rubber:
text: Silicone, by contrast, is a synthetic polymer made up of silicon, oxygen and other elements, most typically carbon and hydrogen.
text: Still, silicone is a synthetic compound, so you may be wondering if it’s realy safe enough to be used in cooking and baking.
text: Like any plastic polymer, silicones are synthetic and include a mix of chemical additives derived from fossil fuels.
text: Silicone is a synthetic material made of silicon–oxygen polymers used for a variety of applications.
text: Silicones, on the other hand, are synthetic polymers made of silicon, oxygen, and other elements (usually carbon and hydrogen).
text: In short, silicon is a naturally occurring chemical element, whereas silicone is a synthetic substance.
text: Silicone is a synthetic (man-made) material created by bonding silicon with oxygen.
text: Silicones are synthetic organosilicon oxides composed of the elements silicon, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen; they are used as lubricants, hydraulic fluids, waterproofing compounds, varnishes, and enamels because, as a class, they are chemically inert and unusually stable at high temperatures.
text: Silicone, a synthetic rubber made of bonded silicon (a natural element abundant in sand and rock) and oxygen, is increasingly filling this niche.
text: Silicone is a synthetic rubber which contains bonded silicon – a natural element, abundant in sand and rock – and oxygen.
text: When we are speaking about bakeware, we are referring to silicone, the synthetic polymer.
text: Unlike the element silicon, silicone is a synthetic compound made up of siloxanes.
