Silicones - Industry Market Research, Market Share, Market Size, Sales, Demand Forecast, Market Leaders, Company Profiles, Industry Trends

US demand for silicones will climb 4.5 percent annually to $4.4 billion in 2020, with volume rising 2.6 percent per year to 908 million pounds. This will be a moderation from the previous 5-year pace. Silicone elastomers and resins will remain the fastest growing products. The industrial market will remain dominant, but will be outpaced by medical and construction uses.

This study analyzes the $3.5 billion US silicone market. It presents historical data (2005, 2010 and 2015) and forecasts (2020 and 2025) by product (e.g., fluids, elastomers, resins, gels), market (e.g., industrial, consumer, construction, medical), and application (e.g., vehicles and binders, elastomeric components, surfactants, lubricants and greases, defoamers, emollients, conditioning agents, polishes).

The study also considers market environment factors, details industry structure, evaluates company market share, and profiles 40 industry players, including Dow Corning, Momentive Performance Materials, and Wacker Chemie.
