"The global silicon additives market is likely to grow at a promising CAGR of 7.9% during the forecast year."
Silicon additives are substances that are added to silicone materials to improve their properties. They can be used to change the physical, chemical, or electrical properties of the silicon, or to make it more resistant to certain environmental conditions.
Silicon additives are used in paints and coatings to reduce the surface tension of the liquid coating. This makes the coating more wetting and helps to prevent surface defects such as cracking and poor wet. Silicone additives also improve the scratch resistance of the coating.
The silicon additives market is driven by increasing demand for silicone-based products. The automotive industry is another major end-user of silicone additives. The increasing demand for fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles is driving the demand for silicone additives in the automotive industry.
Silicon additives are used in many automotive applications including as lubricants, coatings and sealants. The increase in the use of electric vehicles and the quest for better fuel economy are the factors that are influencing the growth of this market.
Silicon additives are applied in the construction industry in products such as concrete, mortar, and grout to enhance their strength, endurance, and resistance to environmental conditions. The construction industry is gradually expanding more so in the emerging markets and this is putting pressure on manufacturers to incorporate these additives.
Coatings and paints contain silicon additives because they enhance the product’s performance, longevity, and aesthetics. The increased application of high-performance coatings and paints in different sectors like aerospace and automotive are also fuelling the demand for these additives.

Function Insights
"The defoamersegment accounted for the largest market share."
The silicon additives market is segmented into defoamer, rheology modifier, surfactants, wetting and dispersing agents, lubricating agents, and others. The defoamer is anticipated to achieve the highest CAGR throughout the forecast period. Defoamers are used to prevent the formation of foam in silicone-based products. They do this by breaking down the surface tension of the liquid, making it more difficult for bubbles to form.
Application Insights
"Paints and coatingssegment accounted for the largest market share."
The market is segmented into plastics & composites, paints & coatings, pulp & paper, food & beverage, and others. Paints and coatings are anticipated to remain the dominant as well as the fastest-growing application in the market during the forecast period. This is due to the increasing demand for high-performance paints and coatings that can provide better protection against the elements and improve the appearance of buildings and other structures.
Regional Trends
"Asia-Pacificaccounted for the largest market share."
Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the largest market for silicon additives market during the forecast period. The demand for bio-acrylic acid has surged due to expanding industrial activities.
