Market Overview:
The global solid alkali silicates 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 detergents, catalysts, pulp & paper, elastomers and other applications across the globe. In terms of type, sodium silicate is expected to lead the global solid alkali silicates market during the forecast period owing to its high demand from detergent manufacturers. Potassium silicate is also anticipated to witness high growth in this market due to its growing demand from catalyst manufacturers.
Product Definition:
A solid alkali silicate is a material made up of silicon and oxygen atoms, with at least one alkali metal atom bonded to each. These materials are used in a variety of applications, including as insulation materials, glassmaking ingredients, and construction materials.
Sodium Silicate:
Sodium silicate is a chemical compound with the formula 3SiO2. It is a white crystalline solid and has no taste or odor. It can be produced by the reaction of soda ash (sodium carbonate) with silica (quartz). The major application of sodium silicate is in the production of cement, where it acts as an additive to improve durability and strength.
Potassium Silicate:
Potassium silicate is a chemical compound, which has potassium (K) and silicon (Si) as its base elements. It has a low melting point and decomposes when heated. The product is widely used in the production of solid alkali silicates such as zeolite, silex, and talc.
Application Insights:
Detergents were the largest application segment and accounted for a revenue share of over 40.0% in 2017. The product has excellent cleaning properties which help remove stains from clothes without the need for additional enzymes or chemicals. Detergent manufacturers are increasingly using SSS as it helps in maintaining fabric softness and reduces wrinkles caused by hard water, thereby enhancing cloth appearance.
The demand is expected to increase due to its superior detergent-forming ability that enables customized formulations that are efficient at lessening dirt while providing bright colors and longer-lasting freshness on fabrics, compared to liquid detergents produced with traditional surfactants or synthetic ingredients. Solid detergents provide better washing performance than liquid counterparts as they have higher surface activity resulting in enhanced soil removal from fabrics during laundry washings at home or commercial washes across various regions globally including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific etc.
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 detergents, catalysts, pulp & paper, and elastomers applications. Asia Pacific has been witnessing rapid urbanization along with increasing disposable income levels that have triggered consumer spending on housing and construction activities. This trend is projected to drive product demand in building materials as well as automotive sectors over the next eight years.
The Middle East & Africa market was valued at USD X million in 2017 owing to high production of crude oil which provides economic benefits such as employment generation for countries including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt etc., thereby boosting industry expansion over the coming years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the construction industry for use in mortars, grouts, and tile adhesives
- Growing demand from the paints and coatings industry as a pigment extender
- Rising demand for insulation materials in both residential and commercial construction projects
- Increasing use of solid alkali silicates as a binding agent in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics products
- Growing popularity of green building initiatives that promote the use of sustainable construction materials
