Silicone Additives Market Drivers
The increasing shelf-life of coatings have become of the major factor that drives the growth of the market
The main driving factor for the silicone additives market is their role in boosting coatings' shelf-life. Paints & coatings was the dominant application segment of the global silicone additive market in 2019 and it is anticipated that this trend will continue over the forecast period. Owing to the introduction of volatile organic compound (VOC) regulations in large parts of the world, the growth of the decorative coatings industry has led to increased demand for eco-friendly additives.
Silicone Additives Market Challenges
The use of costly platinum catalysts in the manufacture of silicone which raises the overall cost of the silicone additive
The use of costly platinum catalysts in the manufacture of silicone additives for the paint & coating industry is a significant constraint, which raises the overall cost of the silicone additive. Platinum catalyst is often used in silicone-release coatings as an external curing method. Low platinum volume can affect curing velocity efficiency and release the coatings property. A compromise in platinum volume can lead to incomplete cure. In addition, the high expectations, demanding specifications and daunting challenges facing the plastics industry these days create opportunities for innovation in silicone additive products.
Market Landscape
