Silicone coating market size is forecast to reach $8.6 billion by 2027

Silicone coating market size is forecast to reach US$8.6 billion by 2027 after growing at a CAGR of 5.8% during 2022-2027 according to Industry ARC. The silicone coatings are employed in various end-use industries such as building and construction, automotive, and others due to silicone water repellents features, which have a waterproofing tendency, this results in more durability. Moreover, for coating applications, silicon-based polymers are excellent materials because these compounds offer exceptional features such as high chemical, thermal, and UV resistance, as well as robust adherence to most surfaces. The silicone coating market is majorly driven by the growing demand from the consumer goods industry. Similarly, the expanding demand from the automotive industry is also fueling the growth of the silicone coating industry.

Global silicone fluids market forecast with a CAGR of 5.6 percent through 2027

Silicones, also referred to as polydiorganosiloxanes by chemists, are stable and resistant to heat, electromagnetic radiation, and other diverse influences. Silicone fluids are odorless, transparent liquids that can resist extreme environments, such as heat, cold, and moisture. They can sustain temperatures ranging from below 60°C to +300°C. Moreover, silicone fluids are much stable than organic rubbers or polymers when exposed to UV and electromagnetic radiation. Its wide range of characteristics include excellent stability, low volatility, water repellence, and low surface tension. The fluids’ viscosity is determined by their molecular weight, although they are majorly liquid.
