The global demand for Silicones Market is presumed to reach the valuation of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% during the period of 2022-2028.
Silicones are synthetic polymers made up of siloxane. It has a silicon-oxygen backbone with organic groups attached to the silicon atoms by C-Si bonds. Silicones have unique properties amongst polymers due to the immediate existence of organic groups attached to a chain of inorganic atoms. The unique chemical structure of the silicone allows them to be produced in various forms such as silicone gels, silicone fluids, silicone elastomers (rubbers) and silicone resins. They are used in numerous industries, including electronics, construction, paints, automobiles, food, and healthcare.
