Market Overview:
The global silicone defoamer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the silicone defoamer market can be attributed to the increasing demand for paints and coatings, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, metalworking fluids, food and beverages, and other applications. In terms of type, the oiliness silicone defoamer segment is expected to lead the global silicone defoamer market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to its properties such as high stability under extreme conditions and resistance against shear forces.
Product Definition:
Silicone Defoamer is a chemical agent used to prevent the formation of foam in liquids. It is important because it prevents the formation of potentially dangerous foam in industrial and commercial settings, and can help improve the clarity of liquids.
Oiliness Silicone Defoamer:
Oiliness silicone defoamer is a kind of specialty additive, which helps to reduce the viscosity of silicone oil used in lubricants. It has no other function than to reduce the viscosity and it’s not necessary for the product to be thicker or goopy. The most important factor that influences this market growth is consumer demand for less-viscous oils.
Emulsion Silicone Defoamer:
Emulsion silicone defoamer is a type of silicone elastomer developed for use in oil-based formulations. It has applications as thickeners, stabilizers and emulsifiers in various end-use industries such as automotive, construction and food processing. The product offers several advantages over conventional products including improved thermal stability, low surface tension & high viscosity which makes it suitable to be used in lubricants with higher flash points such as engine oils.
Application Insights:
The water treatment application segment led the global market in 2017. The product is used to prevent scaling and corrosion in water systems, such as municipal drinking water systems, desalination plants, industrial cooling & heating loops and aquaculture ponds. It is also used for oil-free foaming of detergents in wastewater applications.
Silicone defoamers are widely utilized for paints and coatings due to their ability to reduce foam formation during application processes without affecting the viscosity of the paint or coating solution. They are primarily added during two stages of a paint process: wetting agents stage where it acts as a thixotropic agent by increasing the surface tension on wetting; and emulsification stage where it helps form an even film on top of a liquid coating which reduces brush marks caused by uneven thicknesses when applied with spatula or roller.
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 paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals, metalworking fluids, food and beverages among others. China is one of the largest producers of silicones across the globe. It also has a high demand for silicone defoamers due to growing construction industry coupled with rapid urbanization in emerging economies such as India and Indonesia among other Southeast Asian countries.
The Asia Pacific market was followed by Europe which accounted for more than 25% share of global revenue in 2017 owing to high consumption from numerous applications including water treatment, paints & coatings sector amongst others.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for silicone defoamer in end-use industries such as paints and coatings, adhesives and sealants, and printing inks.
- Rising demand for silicone defoamer from emerging markets such as China, India, Brazil, and Mexico.
- Growing use of silicone defoamers in water-based systems owing to their excellent wetting properties.
- Increasing adoption of low VOC (volatile organic compounds) silicone defoamers due to stringent environmental regulations across the globe.
