Elastomers, also known as rubber products have a wide range of applications in various end-user industries such as consumer goods, automotive, healthcare, construction, and electrical and electronics. Silicone elastomers are preferred over other materials because they have superior properties such as thermal resistance, flame retardancy, easy fabrication, ozone and UV resistance, durability, and tear resistance. Their permeability and durability properties make them ideal for use in implants, wearable devices, and drug delivery systems in the medical industry. Thus, the growing demand for silicone elastomers will boost the growth of the silicones market during the forecast period.

As per Technavio, the growing demand for medical-grade silicones will have a positive impact on the market and contribute to its growth significantly over the forecast period. This research report also analyzes other significant trends and market drivers that will influence market growth over 2020-2024.
Global Silicones Market: Growing Demand for Medical-Grade Silicones
Tests such as tissue culture tests, US Pharmacopeia (USP) class VI biological tests, and histopathology are performed on silicones to classify them as medical-grade silicone. Medical-grade silicones are also tested for hemolysis, skin sensitization, and pyrogenicity. These silicones are available in a variety of grades and characterized by superior quality. Properties such as chemical and temperature resistance, stability, processing flexibility, and superior biocompatibility make them ideal for use in medical applications. Thus, with the growing demand for medical-grade silicones, the market for silicones is expected to showcase a positive outlook during the forecast period.
“Increasing adoption of silicones in the electrical and electronics industry and rising preference for bio-based products are some other major factors that will boost market growth during the forecast period,” says a senior analyst at Technavio.
