China’s Achilles’ Heel in Brain-Computer Interfaces: 90% Controlled by Foreign Powers A Trillion-Yuan Market Within Reach — Can Domestic Silicone Turn the Tide?

The global brain-computer interface (BCI) market is surging ahead at a staggering annual growth rate of 25.22%. In the medical sector alone, the trillion-yuan potential is within reach. As paralyzed patients begin walking again thanks to BCIs, few realize this: the life-or-death switch of China’s domestic devices is often controlled by foreign hands.

In Parkinson’s surgeries, imported silicone shortages have brought operations to a halt. Two out of every three BCI devices globally contain Chinese components — but the core material, medical-grade silicone, is monopolized by foreign companies. They raised prices by 300%, and we had no choice but to endure it. Is there truly no way out of this deadlock?

In a breakthrough, a Shanghai laboratory has made waves: a newly developed implant-grade silicone has remained stable in a monkey’s brain for 730 days — 200 days longer than its imported counterpart. While foreign manufacturers fixate on purity, China has broken through with a biomimetic structural approach.

As the old saying goes, “Opportunity lies in crisis.” China’s long-term implantable silicone technology doesn’t just promise to unlock a domestic replacement market worth hundreds of billions — it may also reshape the entire global supply chain. This quiet revolution in materials science could be the key turning point for China to overtake its global competitors on the next curve.
