Market Overview (2016-2026)

  • Forecast CAGR (2021-2026): 5%

Latin America’s growth is predicted to be driven by the rapid expansion of key end-use sectors such as automotive, electrical, electronics, and construction. Furthermore, the presence of electronic manufacturers in Latin America should provide new prospects for silicone manufacturers. Moreover, during the forecast period, a broad crude oil production establishment in Brazil, Venezuela, and Chile may encourage the usage of silicone polymers and fluids. The demand for fluids, elastomers, and resins in the silicones market has been driven by growth in the home and personal care industry, as well as the automotive sector in Latin American countries.

Industry Definition and Major Segments

Silicones are polymers made up of repeated siloxane units or chains of silicon and oxygen atoms. It has features like water resistance, tensile strength, high binding capacity, and transparency, among others, due to its molecular structure. It is suited for high temperature and high voltage power production applications due to the strong bonding between oxygen and silicon atoms. Furthermore, silicone grease is commonly utilised in gas-insulated switchgear flange connections. Silicone grease is a semifluid consisting of a thickening agent dispersed in a liquid lubricant. It protects against corrosion and, as a result, SF6 gas leakage.
