The global silicone masterbatch market size is estimated to be USD 89 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 156.87 million by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% during the forecasting period. In the market study, our analysts have considered silicone masterbatch players such as Dow, Wacker, Momentive, Chengdu Silike, and Javachem etc.
For simplicity of usage in RTV formulations, vinyl silicone polymers are combined with silica to create and form silicone master batch. All of these items offer outstanding physical property improvements and do away with the risks associated with using or handling hydrophobic silicas. These goods serve as two-part RTV formulation additives. It plays a significant role in surface properties by significantly enhancing the wear resistance and scratch resistance of the composite, lowering the surface friction coefficient, enhancing surface lustre, and removing surface flaws. It also improves the compatibility of glass fibre and plastic, lowers broken fibre, and improves the floating phenomenon. Paint, bonded electroplating, and the distinctive smooth, silky handle are all unaffected.
Silicone powder enhances the efficiency of plastic processing and demoulding; it lowers torque, lowers equipment wear, makes it simple to fill moulds, and lowers the percentage of defective goods produced. Reduce the friction coefficient, enhance the silky touch on the surface, boost the smooth performance, and improve wear and scratch resistance are all obvious goals.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with market experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.
The silicone masterbatch market was only little impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. According to OECD (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development), governments in 54 developed and emerging countries took close to 800 actions with the intention of preventing worsening disruptions, aiding affected producers and consumers, or accelerating the recovery of affected production activities. The pandemic was anticipated to have a short-term influence on silicone masterbatch market expansion worldwide. Due to the interest in guaranteeing stable supply chains, sustainable crop production, and food security, the pandemic is predicted to increase investment in silicone polymer.
"Growing Applications of the Chemical to Drive the Market"
The expansion and development of the European automotive sector can be ascribed to the region's growing need for silicone masterbatches. The demand for the chemical is being driven by applications in wire and cables, auto interior parts, BOPP films, and PC/ABS parts, which is in turn increasing market growth throughout the forecast period. Because of their advantageous characteristics, including high slip, mar resistance, and surface protection for polymers, they are widely employed in a variety of end-use industries. The market for silicon masterbatches is being fuelled by the rise in demand for flame-resistant wires and connections. These cables and wires are used in the automobile, consumer electronics, and telecommunications sectors.
Since masterbatches give stability and durability by lowering the co-efficient of friction, they can also be employed as additives in the packaging sector. Some of the uses for silicon masterbatches include the packaging of food, drink, and pharmaceutical products.
Based on type; the market is divided into Silicone Content below 50%, Silicone Content 50% and Silicone Content above 50%.In terms of product, Content 50% is the largest segment.
Based on application; the market is divided into Automotive Trim Interiors, Electrical and Electronics, Pipes and Wire, Packaging and Others.In terms of application, Automotive Trim Interiors is the largest segment.
"Growing Demand Driven by Unique Properties Will Support Market Growth"
Major industries where silicone masterbatches are used include construction, automotive, packaging, electrical & electronics, and industry. In artificial polymers, silicone masterbatches can be employed as additives. Because they offer better surface aesthetics, increased scratch resistance, shorter cycle times, high strength, and low coefficients of friction, synthetic polymers are employed in a variety of industries, including packaging, consumer electronics, automotive, furniture, toys, and construction. PC/ABS components, which are utilised primarily in the automotive and electronics industries to improve scratch resistance, surface quality, fire resistance, surface gloss, and other properties, also contain this chemical. This is anticipated to fuel silicone masterbatch market growth.
"Government Imposed Mandatory Emission Control Regulations to Spur Market Expansion"
The market for silicone masterbatches is being driven by the government's increasing focus on reducing carbon emissions in order to lessen the dangerous effects of greenhouse gas emissions. Vehicle sales for the automotive industry are increasing quickly. Light-duty trucks and cars must adhere to tight regulations in order to meet specific emission levels. As a result, automakers are emphasising the use of lightweight materials for a vehicle's internal components. To cut down on carbon emissions, more lightweight, environmentally friendly automobiles are being sold. Additionally, government-mandated emission regulation is a significant factor in the growing acceptance and appeal of lightweight automobiles. High strength, low coefficient of friction, and fire resistance are all features of silicone. Economic expansion and rising demand for a reliable power supply. The demand for steady power supply and economic expansion are anticipated to drive up the price of silicone masterbatches.
"High Price of the Chemical to Hamper Market Growth"
A number of end-use sectors, including wire & cable, automotive, packaging, electronics & telecommunications, and, are working to produce finished goods at low production costs. Price therefore has a significant impact on the silicone masterbatch market. During the forecast period, the market is expected to be constrained by the high cost of masterbatches compared to alternatives.
"North America to Dominate the Market Due to Electronic Companies"
Over the course of the forecast, North America is anticipated to lead the global silicone masterbatch market share. Due to the presence of electrical and electronic equipment, pipes, and wire, and interior automotive trim. Additionally, the US is home to some of the biggest marketplaces for the production of electronics and MRO, like Dow, Momentive, and Prism Color. North America, at the same time is expected to experience significant growth over the forecast period due to high demand for products developed in the region.
