Silicone
Oil Market: Overview
·
Silicone oil is also known as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS).
Silicone oil contains silicon–oxygen linkages, which are considered stronger
than the typical carbon-to-carbon chains present in hydrocarbon fluids. Hence,
demand for silicone oil is high.
·
Silicone oil is employed in various industries such as
automotive, cosmetics & personal care, pharmaceutical, electronics,
textile, and chemical
·
Silicone oil is transparent, non-toxic, odorless, and inert. It
has electric and thermal stability, which makes it suitable for usage in
various industrial applications.
Key Drivers and Restraints of Silicone Oil market
·
Increase in demand for cosmetics, personal care products, and
pharmaceutical products is expected to drive the global
silicone oil market in the near future. Silicone oil possesses
properties such as low density, high viscosity, and non-toxicity; as a result,
demand for silicone oil is high in sectors such as cosmetics & personal
care and pharmaceutical.
·
Growth of automotive, chemical, and electronics sectors across
the globe is anticipated to boost the global silicone oil market during the
forecast period. Properties of silicone oil such as water resistance, lack of
odor, nontoxicity, inertness, and electric and thermal stability are expected
to drive the global silicone oil market during the forecast period.
·
Increase in awareness about environment protection across the
world is expected to drive the global silicone oil market during the forecast
period. Silicone oil is a biocompatible and biodegradable material. Led by its
eco-friendly properties, the demand for silicone oil is expected to increase in
the near future.
·
Limited availability and fluctuating costs of raw materials are
major restraints of the global silicone oil market
Global Silicone Oil Market: Segmentation
·
The global silicone oil market can be segmented based on type
and end-user industry
·
Based on type, the global silicone oil market can be segmented
into straight silicone fluid and modified silicone oil. The modified silicone
oil segment is expected to dominate the global market between 2021 and 2031.
Modification of silicone oil can be achieved by adding amino, carboxyl,
methacryl, or dimethyl group to its structure, which imparts additional
properties such as water repellency, absorbability, flexibility, and lubricity.
Thus, demand for modified silicone oil is expected to rise significantly during
the forecast period.
·
In terms of end-user industry, the global silicone oil market
can be classified into cosmetics & personal care, pharmaceutical,
automotive, chemical, electronics, textile, and others. The cosmetics &
personal care segment is projected to expand at a rapid pace during the
forecast period.
