The global silicone fluids market is expected to grow from USD 6.21 billion in 2019 to USD 9.03 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 4.72% during the forecast period from 2020 to 2027. Increasing demand for silicone fluids from the end-user industries such as personal care, medicinal & pharmaceuticals, driving the growth of the market. In the personal care industry, it offers smoothness in shampoos and beauty creams, improves spreadability in natural oils and prevent stickiness in oils, further fuelling the growth of the market. Furthermore, increasing demand for silicone fluids in the manufacturing of lubricants and grease, propelling the growth of the market. However, high price fluctuation and high cost of production, are some of the factors hampering the growth of the global silicone fluids market.
The study delivers a comprehensive analysis of type, applications, and regions. Type segment includes straight silicone and modified silicone. Modified silicone segment held the largest market share of 63.86% and valued at USD 3.91 billion in 2019. This is attributed to increasing demand for modified silicone, owing to its additional functionality beyond the common dimethyl silicone fluid. Application segment includes agriculture, energy, home care, personal care, textile, detergents, food, aviation, medical instruments, chemical industry, adhesives & sealants, coatings & paints, electrics & electronic, pharmaceutical, construction, automotive & transport, machine tool, elastomers & plastics, paper, films & NIP, and others. Personal care segment held the largest market share of 24.81% in 2019. Cosmetics and personal care sector has increased in last few years due to increasing preference of people for beauty products, and silicone fluids are used as key ingredient in beauty products. The regions analyzed for the market include North America, Europe, South America, Asia Pacific, and Middle East and Africa. These regions are further analyzed at the country-level. Asia Pacific held the largest market share of 40.69% in 2019, owing to growth of end-user industries such as personal care, medicinal & pharmaceuticals and other across the region.
Key players in the silicone fluids market are Dow Silicones Corporation, Wacker Chemie AG, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd., Gelest, Inc., Elkem ASA, ACC Silicones, BRB International, and Siltech Corporation among others. Developing and developed countries are offering greater opportunities and major players are continuously focused on new developments, strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and venture capital investments to obtain high growth in the market. In March 2018, Wacker Chemie AG announced that the company has opened a new hydrosilylation plant for manufacturing functional silicone fluids in West Bengal, India. This plant is capable of producing 6,000 mt of functional silicone fluids per annum to meet the increasing regional demand for specialty silicones.
