my country’s hexamethyldisilazane production capacity is gradually increasing, and pharmaceutical applications account for a large proportion

Hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS), also known as hexamethyldisilazane, is a very important organosilicon compound. The chemical molecule of hexamethyldisilazane is C6H19NSi2, which appears as a colorless and transparent liquid with a special smell under normal temperature and pressure. Hexamethyldisilazane is easily soluble in water and will be rapidly hydrolyzed when in contact with air to form hexamethyldisilazane, trimethylsilanol, etc. Hexamethyldisilazane contains a large amount of silicon element and has the characteristics of heat resistance, oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance.

At present, the hexamethyldisilazane industry chain has basically been formed. The upstream of the industrial chain is mainly the raw material industry, providing vinyl chloride, metallic silicon, methyl chloride, chlorinated benzene and other raw materials; the midstream is mainly the hexamethyldisilazane production industry, responsible for the synthesis and production of hexamethyldisilazane, etc. links; the downstream is mainly application fields, and hexamethyldisilazane is mostly used in organic synthesis, medicine, semiconductors, silicone rubber and other fields.

From the perspective of market structure, medicine has become the largest application field of hexamethyldisilazane, with an application share of 63.84%; followed by the semiconductor field, with an application share of 20.02%; the organic synthesis field ranks third, with an application share is 5.10%.

In the field of medicine, hexamethyldisilazane can be used as a group protecting agent, and is mostly used in the production of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, anti-tumor, hepatitis and other therapeutic drugs. In the semiconductor field, hexamethyldisilazane, as an electronic chemical, is mostly used in the production of resists, cleaning agents, etc. In addition, hexamethyldisilazane can also be used directly as a surface treatment agent, which can effectively prevent product surface oxidation, thereby improving the corrosion resistance of the product surface. Overall, the market demand for hexamethyldisilazane in my country is relatively huge.

According to the“2023-2027 Hexamethyldisilazane Industry Market Supply and Demand Status and Industry Operating Indicators In-depth Investigation and Analysis Report” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that with the rapid development of my country’s pharmaceutical, semiconductor and other industries, the market demand for hexamethyldisilazane, as a basic chemical, is gradually increasing. Against this background, the production scale of my country’s hexamethyldisilazane enterprises has gradually expanded, and production capacity has grown steadily. In 2022, my country’s hexamethyldisilazane production capacity will exceed 25,000 tons.

Industry analysts said that my country’s hexamethyldisilazane market is highly concentrated and leading companies have emerged. The major hexamethyldisilazane companies in my country include Jiabi New Materials, Blue Star Fire, Shuoerbo, Chenguang New Materials, Xinyaqiang, etc. Among them, Xinyaqiang has become the largest company in the Chinese market, accounting for 38.07%; followed by Shuoerbo, accounting for 28.12%. With the rapid development of my country’s hexamethyldisilazane industry, Xinyaqiang, as a leading company in the industry, has seen its operating income gradually increase. According to data in the company’s annual report, in 2022, Xinyaqiang’s operating income will be 1.134 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 28.82%.
