Silicone Sealants Market Size To Reach $6.07 Billion By 2030


The global Silicone Sealants Market size is expected to reach USD 6.07 billion by 2030, registering at a 6.0%, as per the new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing construction activities across the globe, along with the growing demand for insulated glass due to rising concerns over energy consumption, are anticipated to drive market growth.

The construction industry was the major end-user of silicone sealants in 2018 and this trend is expected to continue over the forecast period. The various benefits of the product such as the ability to withstand high & low temperatures, insulation, durability, aesthetic finish, water and chemical resistance, etc., increase their preference over other adhesives & sealants. Growing infrastructural developments across the world, especially in developing economies are anticipated to drive market growth.

The market is segmented based on four technologies, out of which room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) held the largest share in 2022. RTV silicone sealants are extensively used in a wide range of applications and are gaining popularity in electronics. For instance, their usage in the assembly process of the automotive industry helps in removing the need for pre-cut fixed gaskets, reduces the use of screws, protects against vibrations, and prevents water penetration.

Furthermore, automotive applications are expected to witness sluggish growth owing to the growing use of adhesives. However, the penetration of pressure-sensitive sealants in the automotive industry is expected to grow substantially on account of the less pressure required to bind to the substrate and their improved adhesion properties. Industrial application is expected to witness steady growth owing to initiatives undertaken by the governments of emerging economies to promote manufacturing in the countries. The use of silicone sealants is expected to grow in other applications such as cosmetics, home appliances, electronic devices, and others over the forecast period.

Silicone Elastomer Market Size is Predicted to Witness 10.3% CAGR till 2030

 


The global Silicone Elastomer Market size is expected to reach USD 12.6 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 10.3% over the forecast period, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Superior quality over conventional elastomers makes it ideal for industrial usage, thereby positively affecting the overall industry. End-use industries, such as construction, automotive, and electrical & electronics, are expected to witness rapid growth over the forecast period. Silicone elastomers are widely used in the medical and healthcare industries. Silicone elastomers have quickly acquired popularity in the medical and healthcare industries, from medical equipment to drug delivery systems. Favorable features, such as inertness, high permeability, ease of processing, and low toxicity contribute to this acceptability.

With a rising population, the medical sector has been under immense pressure to meet the rising healthcare demand. Moreover, the aging population in certain countries of the world, such as North America, is expected to put a burden on the medical and healthcare business throughout the projection period. Construction was a dominant application segment in 2022. It was followed by the automotive and electrical & electronics segments, which held 23.8% and 13.8% shares, respectively, in the same year. The electrical & electronics segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR from 2023 to 2030. The electronics end-use segment is expected to witness a significant growth rate during the forecast period. Silicone elastomer is used to enclose electronic components to increase their stability against vibration, shock, and radiation.

Thus, it helps enhance durability, thereby, boosting the overall performance of the device under extreme conditions, such as zero gravity and low-pressure areas. Factors, such as expanding population, increasing disposable income of the middle-class population, and digitalization are creating significant growth opportunities for the electronics industry. This, in turn, is expected to boost product demand over the forecast period. Key companies are constantly engaged in mergers & acquisitions, developing new products, and other techniques to enhance their market share. For instance, in November 2021, Momentive Performance Materials Inc. acquired KCC Corp.’s silicone business in the U.K. and Korea as well as the sales operations in China. This agreement will enable Momentive Performance Materials Inc. to further expand its global footprint across advanced silicones.

Silica Market Size is Predicted to Witness 9.9% CAGR till 2030

 


The global Silica Market size is anticipated to reach USD 104.34 billion by 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc., registering a 9.9% CAGR during the forecast period. Rising demand for silica across various end-use industries such as rubber, agrochemicals, oral care, and paints and coatings is anticipated to drive the industry.

Precipitated silica is the most extensively consumed product in the market. It is utilized in the reinforcement of elastomer products, such as automotive tires, due to its ability to reduce rolling resistance, improved traction under slippery conditions, and enhanced fuel efficiency. It also acts as an anti-blocking agent in thermoplastic films and a matting agent in paints and varnishes.

Rubber application acquired the largest share in 2018 and is estimated to remain dominant throughout the forecast period. The global demand for tires is increasing on account of an expanding automobile industry, especially in emerging economies. As a result, major tire manufacturers are aggressively involved in expansion projects in emerging economies like India. For instance, in April 2018 Bridgestone India announced plans to double its production capacity over the next five years at an investment of USD 304 million. This is anticipated to propel product demand from tire manufacturers.

In the construction sector, high-performance concrete (HPC) comprising silica has been recognized as one of the most significant advanced materials necessary for infrastructure development. HPC manufactured with silica fumes provides increased strength and higher resistance to corrosion, abrasion, and chemicals. Moreover, it offers lower permeability, enhanced durability, sustainability, and life-cycle cost efficiencies for concrete. This is estimated to drive utilization of the product in the construction sector.

The competitive landscape of the market reflects a number of companies currently engaging in capacity extensions in order to enhance their market position. For instance, in October 2018, Evonik set up a precipitated silica plant in South Carolina to meet the increasing demand from the tire industry in North America.
