Global Epoxy-terminated Silicone Oil Market Overview
According to Global Market Monitor, the global epoxy-terminated silicon silicone oil market will reach $331.32 million in 2023 with a CAGR of 7.23% from 2023 to 2028. Geographically, Asia Pacific held the largest market share – 53.08% in 2022. As the demand for the textile industry in the Asia-Pacific region increases, it will drive the development of the epoxy-terminated silicone oil industry in the region. In addition, in recent years, international chemicals have gradually moved to the Asia-Pacific region, and the consumption of chemical intermediates has increased. It is expected that the market share in the Asia-Pacific region will reach 59.91% by 2026.
Epoxy-terminated Silicone Introduction
The epoxy-terminated silicone oil is an epoxy-terminated linear polydimethylsiloxane. Due to its strong reactivity, the epoxy group can react with other functional groups and can be used as a modifier, additive, and dilution of various resins. It has a wide range of uses in the textile, leather, and resin cross-linking agents industries. In terms of textile finishing, the end epoxy silicone oil is the most important raw material for ternary copolymerized silicone oil. Epoxy-terminated silicone oil, as a non-toxic and pollution-free "green" product, has been widely used in fiber finishing and resin modification. With the continuous development of the economy and the progress of production technology, epoxy-terminated silicone oil will be more widely used.
The Textile Industry Accounts for the Largest Share of the Epoxy-terminated Silicone Oil Market.
The textile industry currently accounts for the largest share of epoxy-terminated silicone oil consumption.A growing population, increasing disposable income, and lifestyle changes will drive the global textile market. China, India, and Bangladesh are the largest producers of textile raw materials, so it is expected to further boost the textile market in the Asia-Pacific region. China is the world\'s major producer and exporter of textiles and clothing and is expected to become the fastest-growing country in the epoxy-terminated silicone oil market. The European textile market is expected to grow significantly in the next few years. Germany, the United Kingdom, and France are the largest textile producers in Europe. The growing demand for high-tech textiles is one of the main factors driving the market development in the region.
However, it is expected that the demand for epoxy-terminated silicone oil in the chemical intermediates industry will grow fastest in the coming years. The application of the terminated silicone oil industry continues to expand, increasing demand for epoxy-terminated silicone oil.
