Market Overview:
The global hydrophobic silica market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for hydrophobic silica from various end-use industries, such as silicone rubber, adhesives and sealants, polyester, paints, inks and others. In addition, the growing demand for nanotechnology-based products is also contributing to the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
A hydrophobic silica is a type of silica that has been treated with a hydrophobic agent. This treatment makes the surface of the silica more resistant to water and other liquids. Hydrophobic silicas are often used in coatings, sealants, and adhesives.
Fumed:
Fumed or precipitated silica is a colloidal particle sized material, which is produced by the reaction between a polymeric substance and an alkali catalyst. The product has high surface area, low volume and excellent purity making it suitable for applications in paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants as well as paper production industries.
Precipitated:
Precipitated silica is a colloidal particle sized material made up of silyl groups. Precipitated silica has applications in paints and coatings, printing inks, plastics and paper industries as well as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
Application Insights:
The silicone rubber application segment led the global market in 2017. The product is used as a modifier in the manufacturing of high-performance elastomers. These are further utilized in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction and consumer goods among others. In addition, hydrophobic silica is also used for producing adhesives and sealants that are widely utilized across several applications including flooring, roofing, marine coating/liners and industrial lamination among others.
Paints & coatings emerged as the second largest application segment with a share of 15% in terms of volume for 2017. Paints & coatings have been witnessing significant growth on account of rising awareness regarding environment preservation coupled with increasing demand for green paints to reduce greenhouse emissions during production processes globally.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region is home to some of the major economies, such as China, India, Japan and South Korea. Rapid industrialization coupled with increasing per capita income has resulted in a rise in consumer spending on household products including paints and coatings; adhesives & sealants; rubber compounds; silicone rubber products among other applications. This trend is projected to have a positive impact on industry growth over the next eight years.
The Asia Pacific was followed by Europe which accounted for just above 25% of total revenue share in 2017 owing to high demand from countries like Germany, France and U.K., where automotive production accounts for a major chunk of GDP contributing significantly towards economic growth every year since 1950s thus making it one of largest manufacturing hubs across globe with presence of numerous automakers including Volkswagen Group; BMW AG.; Daimler AG etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for hydrophobic silica in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and others
- Rising demand for nanotechnology and its applications in different end-use industries
- Growing investments by key players in research and development of hydrophobic silica products
- Increasing awareness about the benefits of using hydrophobic silica among consumers
- Technological advancements that would help reduce the production cost of hydrophobic silica
