Low-molecular weight PDMS is estimated to lead the overall PDMS market during the forecast period.
The low-molecular weight PDMS is the dominant segment in the overall of PDMS market. It is used widely as laboratory bath fluids, heat transfer fluids, dielectric fluids, low viscosity damping fluids, low viscosity hydraulic fluids, and others. The increasing demand for these products due to the high growth rate of the building & construction, and automotive industries in the developing countries of APAC, South America, and the Middle East & Africa is expected to drive the market for PDMS.
Elastomer is estimated to be the largest form of PDMS.
Elastomer is estimated to be the primarily used form of PDMS in 2019. PDMS elastomers are used widely in industrial applications such as personal care products, medical devices, microfluidic devices, and others. Its properties, such as elasticity, transparency, durability, and long shelf, make it the highly preferred form of PDMS. The growth of healthcare, personal care, cosmetics, and other industries is expected to drive the demand for PDMS elastomers. Hence, the increasing demand for elastomers is expected to drive the PDMS market during the forecast period.
APAC is projected to be the fastest-growing PDMS market.
APAC is estimated to be the fastest growing PDMS market during the forecast period. The APAC region is segmented further into China, Japan, India, South Korea, Australia, and the Rest of APAC. The growing construction, automotive, personal care & consumer products, and electronic & electrical industries in the region owing to growing consumer spending and increasing income levels are expected to boost the demand for PDMS. PDMS is used commonly as adhesives, sealants, and coatings in the construction industry. PDMS is an essential raw material in household & personal products.
