Medical Grade Silicone Market
Global Medical Grade Silicone Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report by Form (Gels, Medical Adhesives, Medical Coatings, and Elastomers) and by Application (Medical Devices, Medical Tapes, Oral Care, Prosthetics & Orthopedic, Contact Lenses, and Others) Forecast, 2021-2027
Silicones or polysiloxanes belong to the organosilicon compounds and owing to their unique properties, they are used in numerous pharmaceutical applications. Silicones play the role of the active substance as well as excipients for the internal use, whereas, enact as excipients for the external uses. The global medical grade silicone market is projected to grow at a modest CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period (2021-2027). The key aspect that drives the growth of the market includes the wide range of properties possessed by medical grade silicones. Properties possessed by silicone include good thermal stability, hydrophobicity, and chemical resistance.
Another major factor that drives the growth of the market includes the rising aging population, increased number of transplants, and implanting of devices in the body along with the improving healthcare infrastructure are likely to drive the growth of the medical grade silicone over the forecast period. Further, the rise in the prevalence of orthopedic conditions such as degenerative bone disease and an increasing number of road accidents are some other factors that demand for the proper implantable devices which in turn is driving the industry growth. However, the availability of other alternatives might challenge the growth of the market over the forecast period.
Segmental Outlook
The global medical grade silicone market is segmented on the basis of form and application. Based on the form, the market is segmented as gels, medical adhesives, medical coatings, and elastomers. The gels segment is estimated to hold a lucrative share in the market. Based on the application, the market is segmented as medical devices, medical tapes, oral care, prosthetics & orthopedic, contact lenses, and others. The medical devices segment is estimated to hold a lucrative share in the market.
Medical Devices Segment to Hold a Substantial Market Share
Amongst the application segment of the market, the medical devices segment is likely to hold the most substantial share in the market over the forecast period. The uses for silicone rubber molding in short-term and long-term medical devices have witnessed an upsurge over the past few years owing to their properties. This material is biocompatible, making it ideal for implantable devices with critical functions such as defibrillators, heart pumps, and surgical reconstructive components. Hence, silicone is well-positioned to meet the ever-demanding material requirements of device manufacturers. Thus, this drives the segmental growth of the market over the forecast period.
Besides, the key contributions by the key players also support the segmental growth of the market over the forecast period. In November 2016, Dow Corning Corp. introduced the novel Dow Corning MG 7-1010 Soft Skin Adhesive, the strongest silicone soft skin adhesive for wearable medical devices. It is a strong, durable adhesive that is suitable for sensitive skin. This new product launch expanded the extensive portfolio of silicone-based adhesives of Dow Corning Corp. Thus, such activities by the key players are likely to further support the growth of the segment in the global medical grade silicones market over the forecast period.
