Fumed Silica Market size to surpass $2.9 Bn by 2032

Fumed Silica Market size is estimated to reach more than USD 2.9 billion by 2032, as per a recent research report by Global Market Insights Inc.
 

Rapidly rising number of activities in the building & construction sector will have a positive outlook on the fumed silica industry growth. The product acts as a highly pozzolanic material and is used for enhancing the mechanical as well as durability properties of concrete. The swift advances in paints and coatings industry have triggered the higher deployment of new ingredient technologies to increase the water viscosity in oil emulsions. However, the high prices of the product may negatively the market outlook to some extent.
 

Increasing use of non-polar resin systems to support demand for hydrophilic fumed silica

Hydrophilic fumed silica held more than 59% of the overall revenue share in 2022 due to its higher application scope. On account of its superior insulating properties at high temperatures, this type of fumed silica is employed in the thickening of non-polar solvents, including mineral spirits, xylene, and styrene. Rising adoption in non-polar resin systems and the growing use of glidants for silicone reinforcing & thickening in food & industrial powders will further influence the industry growth.
 

Constant need for performance benefits to amplify revenues from silicone elastomer applications

Fumed silica market size from silicone elastomers application segment is expected to surpass 600 million by 2032. The growth can be attributed to rising requirement for fumed silica in HTV (high-temperature vulcanized) silicone rubber to offer enhanced reinforcement, sag resistance, dispersibility, surface quality, and service life. Rising deployment in the production of silicone elastomers for increasing tensile strength & modulus, toughness, hardness, and elongation will add impetus to the growth momentum of this industry.
