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 global Silicone Market is growing at a rapid speed owing to the increase in demand from automotive industry.
• 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.
• The wide variety of utilization in various sectors makes the market for Silicone most productive. The growth in the automotive industry is one of the most significant factors for the market.
• 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.
• High consumer acceptance towards new and advanced electronic products including miniaturization and lightweight is expected to spur the growing need for silicone over the forecast period. Silicone are mainly used in the automotive & transportation industry for the production of connector seals, turbocharger hoses, silicone wiper blades, gaskets, spark plug boots, and ignition cables.
• 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.
• Key participants include Dow Corning Corp., Shin-Etsu, Hutchinson, Evonik Industries AG, Kemira Oyj, CSL Silicones Incorporated, RUSNANO, Silchem, Inc., Wacker Chemie GmbH, Silteq Ltd., Quantum Silicones
