MARKET INTRODUCTION
Silicone surfactants better known as supper wetting and spreading agents are used in lowering the surface tensions in liquids. Silicone surfactants are copolymers of polyethers and silicones. They have the ability to reduce the surface tensions of polar as well as non-polar liquids to 20 mN/m lower than that achieved by using organic-based surfactants. Silicone surfactants have a remarkable property to form aggregate structures that feature surfactant bi-layers, vesicles, and lamellar liquid crystals. These tendency to form aggregate structures has in the recent years been deployed to develop silicone vesicles into nanoscale delivery vehicles.
MARKET DYNAMICS
Silicone surfactants possess excellent dispersing, foaming, and emulsifying properties and hence are used in the manufacture of polyurethane foams to improve foam porosity and stabilize the foam cells. The growing consumption of polyurethane foam by the packaging, automotive, and construction industry is expected to drive the demand for silicone surfactants globally. Silicone surfactants such as silicone polyether are used in personal care products as conditioning and moisturising agents, and foaming agents. The growing demand for silicone surfactants in the cosmetic, and personal care and heigene industry is expected to drive the sales of silicone surfactants globally. The growing dependence of silicone surfactants as a raw material in the paints and coatings industry is expected to create ample amount of oppurtunities for the growth of silicone surfactants market in the forecast period.
