Market Segmentation:

Global Silicone Derivative Market has been segmented into type, applications, and region. On the basis of type the market is divided into Silicon Dioxide (Silica), Silicon Carbide, Silicate, Silicon Nitride, and others. Among them Silicone Dioxide is the leader in terms of total demand of Silicone Derivatives. Around 95% silica produced is consumed in construction activities for the production of Portland cement. High melting point of silica enables its use in industrial applications such as sand casting for metallic components. The increasing standard of living enabling people to use high end products such as glass and ceramics in building their houses. This is expected to push the demand of silica in making glass and ceramics. Silica is also used as a key ingredient in food & beverage industries due to its colloidal hydrophilic properties. During the forecast period, the demand of Silicone Dioxide is estimated to increase exponentially, which would fuel the growth of Global Silicone Derivative Market. After silica, silicon carbide is the second most important type of Silicone Derivative. Silicon carbide is majorly used as an abrasive due to its higher durability and lower cost. In addition to increasing usage of silicon carbide in automobiles as high-performance ceramic disc brakes are expected to propel the demand for silicone in coming years. Silicon Nitride is used as a building material for automobile parts such as diesel engines, glow plugs, ceramics bearings, and turbochargers. Moreover, expanding usage of silicone derivatives in electronics as insulators, heat resistors, and dielectric material in capacitors is estimated to drive the demand for Silicone Derivatives further. 

Based on application the Global Silicone Derivative Market is segmented into building & construction, automobile, electronics, energy, chemical, personal care, and others. The building & construction industry is the leading segment in terms of its share in the global demand of Silicone Derivatives. The products, such as, Glass Coatings, Portland cement, and ceramics need Silicone Derivative as a key component. The increasing use of these products may lead to the demand of Silicone Derivatives in coming years. Followed by building & construction, automobile is the second important segment which pull a significant share of demand of Silicone Derivatives. Starting from electronic embedded system to machine parts, silicone derivatives are extensively used in automotive industry. Silicone Derivatives also find their applications as a material for making abrasives and cutting tools. Apart from that use of various Silicone Derivatives as elastomers, sealants, and adhesives make them versatile in nature.

Regional Analysis:

The major regions in Global Silicone Derivative Market are Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is holding the major share of the Global Silicone Market in terms of size. It is the fastest growing region with largest market size in the Global Silicone Derivative Market.
