Global Silicones Market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of more than 5.0% from 2018 to 2026

Global Silicones Market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of more than 5.0% from 2018 to 2026
The global silicones market was valued at around US$ 13,700 Mn in 2017 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of more than 5.0% from 2018 to 2026,

according to a new report by Transparency Market Research (TMR) titled ‘Silicones Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2018–2026.’ Silicones can be defined as a family of high-performance specialty materials. These polymers with large molecules consist of many repeated sub-units. Silicones are used in a wide range of industries due to their favorable physical and chemical properties. For instance, they are resistant to ultraviolet radiation, cold, heat, moisture, and several chemicals. They also provide insulation and long-term elasticity.

Uncertainties Associated with Raw Material Supply Adversely Affect Long-term Growth of Silicones Market

Supply and prices of raw materials of silicones depend upon several factors such as currency exchange rates, environment protection measures, and energy costs. China is an important manufacturer and provider of raw materials in the silicones market. However, often, market players based in the country are unable to meet the environment protection regulations. Hence, they need to frequently stop production during government investigation and restart it once it is over. This creates temporary shortage of raw materials in the market, resulting in increased prices. Companies manufacturing silicones bear some portion of increased raw material prices, while the rest is passed on to customers. However, these shortages of raw materials and associated rise in prices of silicones are difficult to predict. As a result, silicone manufacturers are unable to take pre-emptive actions or secure themselves against the shortage of supply. This adversely affects the ability of silicone manufacturers to plan for long-term.

Silicon Used in Wide Range of Components in Automobiles, Marine Vessels, and Aircraft

The transportation industry comprises segments such as automobiles, marine vessels, aircraft, railways, and other modes of transport such as bicycles and drones. The industry has been expanding consistently. It provides stable revenue generation opportunities. The transportation industry accounted for more than 10% share of demand for silicones in 2017. Consumption of silicones in the industry is expected to increase at a rapid pace, as new applications of silicones are being consistently developed. Silicones are used in the manufacture of a wide range of components such as airbags, ignition coils, engine seals, gaskets, turbocharge hosing, radiator seals, and hoses in car or automobile manufacturing; windscreens, deck cleats, storage hatches, bilge pump seals, and hull/deck seals in marine vessel manufacturing; and instrument seals and electronic component potting, sealants for in-flight entertainment systems, lighting, overhead bins, fuel tanks, and hydraulic gear boxes in aircraft manufacturing.

Global Silicones Market Segmented Based on Form, Application, End-user Industry, and Region

In terms of form, the global silicones market can be divided into fluids, elastomers, and resins. The elastomer segment is likely to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period, as these are employed in a wide range of industries such as consumer goods, transportation, electrical & electronics, and construction. Based on application, the market can be segmented into rubber, coatings, emulsions, sealants, and others. The rubber segment is expected to expand at a faster pace during the forecast period, primarily due to the ease of use associated with the application. In terms of end-user industry, the silicones market can be segregated into consumer goods, construction & architecture, transportation, energy, electrical & electronics, paper, textiles, and others. The construction & architecture industry is anticipated to expand at a fast rate during the forecast period, followed closely by transportation. In terms of region, the market can be classified North America (U.S. and Canada), Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, and Rest of Latin America), Europe (Germany, the U.K., France, Italy, Spain, Russia & CIS, and Rest of Europe), Asia Pacific (China, India, Japan, ASEAN, and Rest of Asia Pacific) and Middle East & Africa (GCC, South Africa, and Rest of Middle East & Africa).

Top Few Players Account for Nearly 50% Share of Global Silicones Market

Key players operating in the global silicones market include Wacker Chemie AG, DowDuPont, Momentive Performance Materials Inc., Evonik Industries, and Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd. These companies constitute around 50% share of the market. Local and regional players in various countries capture the rest of market share. Companies are focusing on expanding their geographical footprint through organic sales, distribution channels, and e-commerce.
