Market Overview:
The global silicone-based surfactants market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for silicone-based surfactants from various end-use industries such as personal care, textile, paints & coatings, and agriculture. In addition, the growing demand for environmentally friendly and biodegradable surfactants is also contributing to the growth of this market. On the basis of type, water-soluble silicone-based surfactants are expected to account for a major share of the global market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to their high solubility in water and their ability to form stable emulsions with low surface tension values.
Product Definition:
Silicone-based surfactants are surface-active agents that contain silicone in their chemical structure. They are important because they can be used to control the surface tension of liquids, which is important in many industrial and consumer applications.
Water-Soluble:
Water-soluble surfactants are those that dissolve completely in water and are usually found in two forms: anionic and cationic. The aqueous solutions of these compounds can be used as detergents, dispersants, or wetting agents. Water-soluble surfactant is one of the key ingredients used for manufacturing various personal care products such as shampoos & conditioners, liquid soaps & shower gels, bath oils & foams among others.
Oil-Soluble:
Oil-Soluble refers to the property of oil in water. It is soluble in vegetable oils such as soybean, rapeseed, and sunflower. Owing to this property, it can be used for direct application on skin without the need for a separate cleanser or moisturizer.
Application Insights:
Personal care emerged as the largest application segment in 2017 and is projected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period. The product demand in personal care applications has been growing steadily owing to their superior properties including skin-soothing, emollient, protective and conditioning characteristics. Personal care products such as soaps, shampoos, shower gels and cosmetics are majorly manufactured using water-soluble silicone based surfactants.
The textile industry is anticipated to emerge as a prominent consumer of silicone-based surfactants due to increasing demand for innovative fabrics with enhanced mechanical properties and colorfastness/durability. Other emerging industries include paints & coatings wherein silicones act as thickeners, wetting agents or emulsifiers depending upon their specific characteristics.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to rising product demand from various end-use industries, such as personal care, textile, paints & coatings and agriculture. China is one of the largest producers of silicones in this region owing to easy availability of raw materials coupled with cheap labor costs.
The presence of a large number of manufacturers coupled with growing exports from Asia Pacific countries such as China and India are anticipated to boost regional market growth over the forecast period. In addition, increasing foreign investments in developing economies are likely to contribute towards industry expansion over next few years. For instance; In 2016; Dow Corning invested USD X million for setting up silicone manufacturing plant in India which will start operation by 2018 end (Dow Corning’s Silicone Products).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for silicone-based surfactants in personal care products owing to their superior properties such as foamability, wetting, and emulsifying.
- Rising demand from the construction industry for silicone-based surfactants in waterproofing and coatings applications.
- Growing use of silicone-based surfactants in textile processing due to their excellent wetting and detergency properties.
- Increasing demand for silicone-based surfactants from the automotive industry as a lubricant additive and corrosion inhibitor agent.
