Market Synopsis
Market Research Future (MRFR) speculates that the global silicones market is estimated to demonstrate a stellar CAGR during the forecast period (2016-2023). Continuous growth in the healthcare and medical sector is likely to favor the market growth in the coming years. Silicones are referred to as polymers with large molecules and comprise several repeated sub-units. Such polymers comprise siloxane which is a chain of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms combined with carbon and hydrogen. Silicones are produced by the reduction of silica in sand form with carbon at high temperature. They are generally produced in three different steps; by the of synthesis chlorosilanes, by hydrolysis of chlorosilanes, and by condensation of polymerization.
Industry Updates
November 12, 2018: Dow Silicones Corporation introduced DOW CORNING MG7-1020 Soft Skin Adhesive, which is the latest addition to the increasing portfolio of solutions for skin-adhered devices. The product offers extended wear and strong adhesion along with manufacturing and design flexibility. It can be used with fabric backing and addresses the healthcare sector’s increased focus on biologic drugs.
