Rising Demand from Paints & Coatings, Sustains Growth of Fumed Silica
Fumed silica is widely rated as a universal thickening agent and an anticaking agent. Paints & coatings is one of the primary application areas for fumed silica as it accounts for a significant chunk of fumed silica consumption. Global fumed silica market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of around 5%, of which, demand for fumed silica from paint & coating applications is anticipated to witness highest growth during the forecast period. Consumption of paints & coatings for industrial and decorative applications will also receive an uptick in coming years. Demand is heavily backed by the trend of providing industrial equipment and products free from corrosion, scratches and abrasions. Thus, anticipated increase in consumption of paints and coatings is expected to bolster growth of fumed silica market during the forecast period.
Silicone Rubbers to be in Forefront, As Demand from Industrial Clusters Soars
Fumed silica is used as an anti-sedimentation agent in production of silicone rubbers. This silicone rubber is widely applied in several sectors, including electronics, construction, adhesives and sealants, and others. For instance, in automotive sector, it helps to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Increased consumption of silicone rubber in various end-use sectors is likely to propel demand growth of fumed silica over the assessment period.
Greener Alternatives Gain Traction
Prominent manufacturers of fumed silica across the globe prefer conventional production methods, i.e. flame pyrolysis of silicon tetrachloride with hydrogen & oxygen. These production processes are capital intensive and also require relatively more energy for production. SioTex Corporation, a U.S. based firm, developed a greener alternative for production of fumed silica, in which rice hulls were used as the raw material. This process requires less energy in comparison with conventional processes and has no involvement of toxic reactants. Fumed silica produced from such a process has the potential to replace the traditionally produced fumed silica, posing a significant challenge for the fumed silica market and in turn for fumed silica manufacturers
North America Dominates Demand, While China to Show Prolific Growth
In current scenario, North America holds around one-third of overall market share in global fumed silica market. Consumption of fumed silica in North America is backed mainly from mature end use market such as personal care, automotive and paint & coatings. However, China is forecast to be fastest growing among all other regions. As per Fact.MR analysis, China is estimated to hold more than one-third of the global market value share in 2029, growing at a CAGR of over 8%. Furthermore, demand for fumed silica from India is growing at a lucrative rate, attributed to growth of personal care, automotive and other sectors.
