The global silicone market is primarily driven by growing demand for building & construction industry across the globe. Moreover, surging chemical and automotive industries are likely to trigger the demand for silicone in the years to come. Moreover, mounting demand for silicone from medical and personal care industry is likely to drive the market of silicone further in the near future. However, the high cost of raw materials such as methyl chloride and silicone metal for the production of silicone is expected to impede the growth of silicone market. Nonetheless, rapidly growing demand for silicone from emerging economies coupled with ongoing research & development for product development is likely to open growth opportunities for the market in the near future.

Based on the type, the global silicone market is bifurcated into resins, elastomer, gels, fluids and others. The elastomer was the largest segment of silicone market in 2015. It accounted for significant share of the total market in 2015. This growth was attributed to the large use of silicone as sealants in building and construction industry across the globe. Silicone elastomer provides protective glaze, high adhesive, and strength. Furthermore, fluid is the fastest growing segment of silicone market over the years to come. It is expected to register a growing CAGR of 5.7% within the forecast period. Usage of silicone gel and resins is also significant.
