Specialty Silicone Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Speciality Silicones Market according to our research experts:

Increasing Demand from the Healthcare Industry

  • Specialty silicones are widely adopted in healthcare. Some of the medical equipment that is made from silicone include feeding tubes, drains, catheters, condoms, respiratory masks, non-stick containers, menstrual cups, syringe pistons, breast implants, pectoral implants, testicular implants, seals and gaskets in healthcare equipment, scar treatment silicone sheets, gels, and dental materials.
  • Specialty silicones are extensively tested for bio-compatibility. Silicone fluids and silicone elastomers are widely used product groups in healthcare.
  • Some of the administrative authorities that regulate the usage of silicones in healthcare are Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), Center for Food Safety and Nutrition (CFSAN) and Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER).
  • CFSAN and CDER are majorly involved in dental regulation as the dental materials come into contact with food.
  • Specialty silicones used in healthcare are classified into non-implantable, short term implantable and long term implantable.
  • Therefore, such demand in the healthcare industry is expected to increase the demand for the specialty silicone in the estimated period.
