Functional Silane Market Grows Apr 20, 2022

1. Functional silane has rich application scenarios and broad market

Functional silanes can carry hydrolysable groups such as chlorine, methoxy, and ethoxy groups and organic functional groups such as amino, epoxy, and vinyl groups. The wide variety and rich functions of functional silanes diversify their downstream application scenarios. Generally concentrated in the following fields: in glass fiber reinforced composite materials, rubber industry, organic-inorganic nanocomposite materials, coatings, organic adhesives, etc., mainly as a surface modifier function.

 

2. The promotion of green tires drives the growth of demand for sulfur-containing silanes

The popularity of green tires will drive the demand for sulfur-containing silanes. Sulfur-containing silanes are currently one of the most produced silanes and are mainly used in the rubber industry. In the rubber industry, the tire industry is the most important application field of sulfur-containing silanes. Green tires refer to radial tires with low rolling resistance, low fuel consumption and low exhaust emission due to the application of new materials and designs. Generally, sulfur-containing silanes and precipitated white carbon are used. Black compound production. With the gradual implementation of my country's green tire regulations and the gradual maturity of the new energy vehicle market, the future market space of functional silanes will continue to expand.

 

3. Adhesives and Sealants Market Drives Functional Silane Growth

The rapid growth of the adhesives and sealants market will drive the growth of the functional silane market. The main application scenarios of adhesives include paper, packaging, construction, automobiles, home appliances, aerospace, etc.; sealants are different from adhesives, and the main function of sealants is to fill the gaps between surfaces to prevent the passage of air, water and chemicals. Adding a silane coupling agent to the adhesive can not only improve the adhesive strength, but also improve the durability and moisture-heat aging resistance of the adhesive. In addition to improving the performance of adhesives, silane coupling agents can also be directly used as adhesives, such as for bonding silicone rubber, fluor rubber, nitrile rubber, etc. to metals.

 

4. Composite materials such as glass fiber have broad prospects

Driven by the rapid development of the new energy industry, the field of glass fiber composite materials will grow at a relatively rapid rate. From a global perspective, the global composite materials are mainly glass fiber composite materials and carbon fiber composite materials, and glass fiber accounts for more than 80% of the market size. Glass fiber has excellent properties such as good insulation, strong heat resistance and good corrosion resistance, and is often used as a reinforcing material in composite materials.
