Global Silicone and Silanes Market is predicted to value over USD 23 million by 2026
end and grow at a CAGR of over 5% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2026.
Market Introduction:
Silicones are polymers that are made up of repeating siloxane units. Silanes consist of
silicon and hydrogen and they exhibit superior reducing properties. Silicone and
Silanes are used in a variety of industries like aerospace, healthcare, personal care,
construction, electronics and transportation.
The Asia Pacific region accounted for a share of around 45% in 2017 and it will
continue to progress in the market during the forecast period. A rise in electronic
exports, an expansion of the automotive industry are some of the key factors
responsible for the rapid market growth of this region. On the other hand, the
European silanes and silicone market is predicted to witness a moderate growth rate
during the forecast period.
2. By Type
• Silicone
o Rubber
• Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV)-1
• Room temperature Vulcanizing (RTV)-2
• Tin-Based System
• Platinum-Based System
o Sealant
• Sanitary Silicone
• Glazing Silicone
• Frame Sealant Silicone
• Neutral Cure Silicone

• High Temperature Silicone
• Aquarium Silicone
• Silanes
o Mono/Chloro Silane
o Vinyl Silane
o Sulphur Silane
o Amino Silane
o Alkyl Silane
o Epoxy Silane
o Methacryloxy Silane
The mono/chloro silane segment holds the largest global market share of around
27%. The primary reason for the segment market growth is the rise in demand for
mono silanes in the semiconductor industry as it obtains high-purity silicon.
Additionally, this high-purity silicon is used for fabricating rectifiers for using it in
high-voltage applications. These are the factors that drive forward this market
segment.
3. By Application
• Silicone
o Construction Materials
o Industrial processes
o Consumer care
o Electronics
o Healthcare
o Energy
• Silane
o Paints & Coatings
o Rubber & Plastics
o Fibre treatment
o Adhesives & Sealants
Considering the silane applications, the paints & coatings segment dominates the
market. It held a global market share of 31.3% in 2017 and is likely to increase its
market share during the forecast period. Another market driving factor for this
segment is the demand that it possesses in the construction industry which will
surely help the paints & coatings segment grow significantly during the forecast
period.
With respect to the silicone applications, the construction segment dominates the
market owing to the rise in the demand for residential as well as commercial projects
and this trend will continue during the forecast period.

Competitive Landscape:
• BASF SE
• ICM Products Inc.
• Evonik Industries
• Kaneka Corp.
• Emerald Performance Materials
• MPM Holdings
• Shin-Etsu Chemical Co. Ltd.
BASF launched two new sealants, Masterseal NP 430 and Masterseal CR 435 that will
be primarily used for moisture ingression and stopping water leakages. This can be
used on various structures like parking decks, stadiums and bridges as these
structures are consistently exposed to abrasive conditions.
Last year, Evonik collaborated with Chinese company Wynca on a 60-40 market share
basis for producing fumes silica under the name AEROSIL. This is used in paints and
coatings, transparent silicones, non-combustible high-performance insulation
materials and modern adhesives. The joint venture will be called Evonik Wynca
Silicon Material CO. Ltd and they are going to set up a production facility at Zhenjiang
in China. Such joint ventures will surely help Evonik strengthen their brand position
and therefore they will perform well during the forecast period.
