Silane Market by Type (Organo-functional Silane, Mono/Chloro Silane), by Application (Rubber & Plastics, Fiber Treatment, Adhesives & Sealants, Paint and Coatings, and others) – Global Forecasts to 2020

““Rising demand for green tire, growing automobile sales, rising water-based coating formulation, and increasing focus on fuel efficiency and regulation compliance are the prime factors driving the growth of the silanes market”
The global silanes market size is estimated to reach USD 1.70 billion by 2020, registering a CAGR of 5.0% between 2015 and 2020. The increasing demand from consumers for road safety, improved fuel efficiency, and low environmental impact vehicles is expected to drive the demand for silanes in the next five years.

“Rubber & Plastics is the largest application of silanes”
Silanes are used in various applications such as rubber & plastics, fiber treatment, adhesives & sealants, paint & coatings, and others. In 2015, the rubber & plastics application segment accounted for the largest share of the overall silanes market, in terms of value. The rubber & plastics application segment is followed by fiber treatment, adhesives & sealants, and paint & coatings segments. The silanes market in the rubber & plastics application segment is estimated to witness the highest CAGR between 2015 and 2020, in terms of volume.

“Rising demand in Asia-Pacific is the major driver for growth of the silanes market “
The robust demand in Asia-Pacific is expected to be the major driving factor for the growth of the global silanes market. China is expected to lead the demand for silanes due to increased industrial production in the last 3–4 years. It is also among the leading consumer of silanes in the world. The markets in other emerging economies such as Brazil and India are also projected to grow rapidly.
