Silicones are specialty, high-performance materials belonging to the polymer family, characterized by large molecules consisting of repeated sub-units. They are composed of siloxane chains, which consist of silicon atoms alternated with oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen atoms. The production of silicones involves several steps, including the reaction between methyl chloride and silicon, followed by water treatment to separate chlorine atoms. Silicones possess diverse chemical and physical properties, making them resistant to moisture, cold, ultraviolet radiation, heat, and various chemicals.
The Asia-Pacific (APAC) region dominates the market with a 35.31% share in 2018. The growth in emerging economies like India and China has significantly contributed to the expansion of the silicone market in the APAC region. The increasing use of Liquid Silicone Rubber for injection molding and modern manufacturing technologies has created numerous opportunities for market growth in the region.
