The Silicone Market is expected to reach USD 22.48 Billion by 2026, according to a new report by Reports and Data. This can be mainly associated with increasing demand for automotive vehicles in various industries globally. Based on statistics, increase in demand from healthcare industry is expected to become the most common growth interest globally in the coming years. Abundant availability of raw materials including metals and polymers coupled with technological expertise has lead to the development of emerging economies which are resulting in high growth rates for the market.
Silicones belong to the family of specialty, high-performance materials. They are mainly polymers with large molecules consisting of various repeated sub-units. These polymers comprise siloxane, which is a chain of silicon atoms and alternating oxygen coupled with carbon and hydrogen. Production of silicones needs multiple steps. The initial phase consists of the reaction between methyl chloride and silicon. The reacted product is then treated with water to separate chlorine atoms. Silanes are exhibited first during the production process. These act as agents in the production of siloxanes and eventually silicones. Silicones contain a wide range of chemical and physical properties. They are resistant to moisture, cold, ultraviolet radiation, heat, and several chemicals.
APAC accounts for the largest market share of 35.31% in 2018. The growing market in emerging economies like India and China is one of the significant reasons for the growth of the silicone market in APAC over the years. Growing awareness along with use of liquid silicone rubber due to injection molding and modern manufacturing technology in the region are anticipated to offer several opportunities for market growth.

Further key findings from the report suggest
- A key feature of Silicone is their relative chemical inertness towards the chemistry of the human body. Silicone can operate as medical devices without the risk of unfavorable effects on the patient. Common uses for silicones in this field are gels or tubing for bandage coating. These substances are also broadly used as lenses for eye and medical implants.
- The elastomer sector of the product segment accounts for the largest market share of 44.81% in 2018. This is due to the rise in demand from the automotive and medical industries globally.
- Among the raw materials, silicon is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period. Silicon is a dominant player in contemporary electronics because it’s an absolute semiconductor of electricity. When fused into a molten state, silicon can be molded into semi-conductive wafers that can be used as the base for integrated circuits (microchips).
- The fluid sector of the product segment of the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.8 % during the forecast period.
- Industrial process accounts for the largest share of 39.30% in 2018 of the global silicone market. This large share is associated with the fact that silicones provide resistance and high durability in industrial coatings and enhance the performance of lubricants.
- Other regions such as. North America is estimated to reach USD 5.11 billion by 2026. Due to the significant demand from Canada and the US.
- Wacker Chemie AG, one of the major players awarded the U.K.-based Intertronics, a distribution contract for silicone products for the U.K. and Ireland in June 2018. In the same month, Shin-Etsu Silicones of America introduced its high-level eight-carbon silane coupling agents.
- The company’s KBM-1083 and KBM-4803 lines have eight carbons. Europe is forecasted to register the CAGR of 6.9%, owing to the increasing government regulations and environmental conditions in the automotive industries.
