Global Silane Market – Predicted Growth, Trends, Opportunity & Analysis

Global Silane Market - Predicted Growth, Trends, Opportunity & Analysis
Spread the love

The global Silane market is expected to grow impressively due to the growing demand from the paint & coating industry. In 2021, China is the world’s largest silicon producer, with a production volume estimated at 5.44 million metric tonnes.

Silanes are primarily used in manufacturing elemental silicones, which are used as a critical material for producing Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), semiconductors, electronic chips, and light-emitting diodes. They also act as an essential originator of high-purity solar-grade silicon. Moving towards generating electricity from renewable sources, the solar cell plays a vital role in developing solar energy, which will subsequently increase the global silane market in the upcoming years.

Increasing Demand from Paint & Coatings Industry

The coatings industry uses silane as a tackier and primer. Increased resin coating adherence to the protected substrate is the primary purpose of the primer. A silane coupling agent is the primer’s major ingredient and can be mixed with specific film-forming agents, catalysts, and colors. The bottom coating is accomplished by means of solvent evaporation, hydrolysis, and solvent dilution brought on by the condensation of atmospheric water.  After being treated with silanes or other additives, inorganic fillers and pigments used in water- and oil-based coatings can significantly increase their wettability and dispersibility during the coating stage. The viscosity of the coating can be significantly reduced as well.

Moreover, the paints and coatings industry focuses less on solvent-based coatings, and more on water-based coatings, the usage of silanes is expanding. Epoxysilanes enhance the blocking resistance and sanding capabilities of clear aqueous coatings. Therefore, the silane market will rise in the upcoming years.

Rising Demand for Mono/Chloro Silane

Chemical compounds called mono/chloro silanes are directly produced using silicon powder and methyl chloride (CH3CI) gas. The basic building blocks of a range of silicone compounds are methyl mono/chloro silanes (dimethyl, trimethyl, and methyl chlorosilane).

By polycondensation and hydrolysis, mono/chloro silane is converted into basic silicone products such as oils, resins, and gums. Silicone (polysiloxane) polymers, silicones, and glass coatings are all often made using mono-chloro silane. These features are expected to increase the demand for mono/chloro silane and further boost overall market growth during the forecast period.

Growing Demand from Pharmaceutical Industry

Organosilicon compounds are widely used in medicines, particularly as reducing agents, blocking/protecting agents, derivatizing reagents, and intermediates for organic synthesis. Due to the outstanding manufacturing quality and biocompatibility of liquid silicone rubber (LSR), it is utilized to make medical equipment. Two pieces are typically given, one of which contains a curing catalyst. The curing catalyst, colors, and other components automatically combine when the material is pushed. Therefore, the silane market will grow globally during the forecast period.

In addition, SiSiB, a well-known producer of silane and silicone, provides medical-grade silicone goods such as silicone oils. This will influence the usage of such bio-based goods by consumers, and it is projected to increase demand for the silane market.

Recent Developments

  • In February 2022, Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. disclosed plans to invest over USD 695 million in expanding silicone production.
  • In April 2022, BRB Silicone grew its company by establishing a new full subsidiary, BRB North America, Inc., to increase silicon product sales and distribution in the United States and Canada.
  • Air Liquide announced in October 2021 that it would increase its silane production capacity by three times in a Japan-based plant.
  • In July 2020, Hexion Inc. announced a collaboration with D&R Dispersions and Resins Sp. z o.o. to produce VeoVa Silane resins on a commercial scale.
