                                  (EMAILWIRE.COM, January 24, 2022 ) Silicone elastomers market size is forecast to reach US$7.1 billion by 2026, after growing at a CAGR of 6.2% during 2021-2026. The industry’s rapid expansion is owing to its superior properties such as extreme temperature resistance, excellent environmental resistance, and low compression set, which makes them suitable for application in various end-use industries such as automotive, aerospace, and healthcare. The factors which are primarily driving the demand for silicone elastomers such as polysiloxane, liquid silicone rubber, fluorosilicone rubber are increasing demand for packaging materials, as well as the increasing manufacturing of aircraft. Furthermore, the global market is also growing due to the high adaptability of silicone elastomers in the electrical & electronics industry. Liquid silicone elastomers possessing strong color gamut and phosphorescent colors; will endure benefiting from rising demand for smartwatches and other wearable devices. The rapid growth of the construction industry has also increased the demand for adhesives and sealants; thereby, fueling the silicone elastomers industry growth.

                                  Silicone Elastomers Market COVID-19 Impact

                                  The Covid-19 pandemic impacted the silicone elastomers industry through the supply chain disruption. Silicone elastomer manufacturers had to develop an effective supply chain in response plan to mitigate risk and prepare for any interruptions that the coronavirus outbreak was causing. Also, the manufacturing facilities such as automotive manufacturing plants were shut down in 2020 due to the closure of non-essential businesses. For instance, according to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers, global automotive production fell by 16% in 2020. According to Toyota Motor Corporation, its global production of vehicles in 2020 was down 12.6 percent year-on-year, owing to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to which the demand for silicone elastomers such as polysiloxane, liquid silicone rubber, fluorosilicone rubber, and more significantly reduced, which impacted the silicone elastomers market revenue in 2020.
