Market Overview
Silicone rubber, an elastomeric material is inert, stable, highly resistant to the extreme work environments. Moreover, some of the other substantial properties exhibited by the silicone rubber such as the high withstand ability for a broader range of temperature (75°F to 500°F) as compared to nearly all other elastomers, high wear and tear strength, great elongation, and high flexibility makes it an ideal component for a range of applications in automotive and construction industry.
Additionally, the highly non-conductive, Silicone Rubber Market Analysis maintain greater dielectric strength and resistance to water, oxidation, various acids, solvents, oils, and fuels which make them ideal for the use in electronics materials. The silicone rubber products are widely used in almost all the rapidly growing industries such as automotive, construction and electronics. The augmented use in some of the burgeoning industries consecutively escalates the market on the global platform.
Considering the potential of the market to grow further in the years to come, Market Research Future (MRFR) in its recently published analysis asserts that the global silicone rubber market is expected to witness exponential growth by 2023, growing at a considerable CAGR during the review period (2018-2023). The global factors influencing the overall rubber market are bound to affect the market of silicone rubber equally.
Additional factors propelling the growth of the silicon rubber market include the ever-increasing population and urbanization worldwide. Improving economic conditions, worldwide, provide impetus to market growth, improving the consumers’ purchasing power.
