Silicone sealants have excellent performance and fierce competition in the market

Silicone sealant, also known as silicone sealant, is a neutral curing silicone glue that can use moisture in the air to vulcanize to form elastic silicone glue. Silicone sealant has the advantages of anti-yellowing and corrosion resistance, and is widely used in many fields. According to different packaging forms, silicone sealants are generally divided into two types: single-component and two-component.

The main raw materials of silicone sealant include silicone, fillers, additives and cross-linking agents. Silicone has a unique structure and has the advantages of weather resistance, electrical insulation, corrosion resistance, and high compressibility, and has strong application demand. In 2021, my country’s organic silicon production reached 1.526 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 6.7%. Benefiting from the sufficient supply of raw materials, my country’s silicone sealant industry has developed rapidly.

Silicone sealant has the advantages of good electrical insulation, aging resistance, and wide temperature range. It is widely used in photovoltaics, automobiles and construction fields. In the field of photovoltaics, silicone sealants are suitable for photovoltaic power generation scenarios in extreme environments such as Gobi and deserts; in the automotive field, silicone sealants can be used to produce products such as automotive electronics, windshields, power batteries, and car lights; in construction In the field, silicone sealants are mainly used in prefabricated buildings, accounting for 50.0% of the demand. According to the “2022-2027 China Silicone Sealant Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that the usage of silicone sealants in my country’s construction field will reach 921,000 tons in 2021, a year-on-year increase of 9.6%. Driven by downstream demand, my country’s silicone sealant market continues to expand.

There are many silicone sealant manufacturers in my country, and the industry competition is fierce. Hubei Huitian New Materials Co., Ltd., Hangzhou Zhijiang Silicone Chemical Co., Ltd., and Chengdu Silicon Bao Technology Co., Ltd. are the leading silicone sealant companies in my country. Silicon Bao Technology is a high-tech enterprise specializing in the research, development, production and sales of new materials such as silicone sealants. According to the annual report of Silicon Bao Technology Company, the company’s silicone sealant production capacity will reach 126,000 tons in 2021.

The production of silicone sealant requires processes such as dehydration, cooling, dispersion, glue making, and packaging. It requires high production equipment. The entire production process needs to be operated in a vacuum environment to avoid contact between the material and the air. The production process of silicone sealant is relatively simple. In recent years, Chinese companies have continuously strengthened cooperation with leading overseas companies, introduced advanced technology, and promoted production to develop in the direction of intelligence and full automation.

Industry analysts said that silicone materials have excellent performance, and silicone sealants, as their downstream products, are widely used in the construction field. As market demand is gradually released, my country’s silicone sealant production will continue to grow. my country’s silicone sealant industry is highly concentrated, with leading companies occupying a major share of the market. Driven by technological innovation, my country’s silicone sealants will gain broad market space.
