The silane coupling agent market is developing well and domestic enterprises have great development potential.
Coupling agent is a kind of plastic additive. According to different components, coupling agent can be divided into chromium complex organic coupling agent, titanate coupling agent, silane coupling agent and aluminum acid compound. Among them, silane coupling agent It refers to a type of organic silicon compound that contains two different chemical groups in the molecule. Silane coupling agents belong to the category of fine chemicals in the field of new material silicones and are high-tech products supported by the state. In recent years, with the increase in national support, the silane coupling agent market has shown good development momentum.
Silane coupling agent production capacity is mainly concentrated in China, the United States, Japan, Germany and other regions. China is the world’s largest silane coupling agent producer, accounting for nearly 70% of its production capacity. Thanks to the continuous growth of the domestic economy, China has become one of the regions with the fastest growing demand for silane coupling agents in the world. In the future, as domestic enterprises improve their R&D capabilities, the silane coupling agent industry will have broad room for development.
According to the “2021-2025 China Silane Coupling Agent Industry Market Supply and Demand Status and Development Trend Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center , silane coupling agents have a wide range of downstream applications, involving photovoltaics, rubber, plastics, glass fiber, advanced paints, stone and other fields. In recent years, with the increase in downstream market demand, the global silane coupling agent industry production capacity has continued to grow. At this stage, it has reached about 800,000 tons/year.
Silane coupling agents are environmentally friendly, have excellent biocompatibility, and are non-toxic and harmless. Under the background of increasingly stringent environmental protection supervision, the silane coupling agent market has broad development space. Attracted by the good market prospects, an increasing number of companies are entering the market. In the international market, silane coupling agent manufacturers mainly include American GE, Dow Chemical, Wacker Chemical, Evonik, Momentive High-tech, etc. In the domestic market, silane coupling agent manufacturers include Jiangsu Chenguang Coupling Agent, Hubei New Blue Sky, Nanjing Shuguang Chemical Group, Dongguan Hongbai Chemical, Nanjing Yudeheng Fine Chemical, Hongbai New Materials, Hubei Jianghan, etc.
From the perspective of the industrial chain, the upstream of the silane coupling agent industry chain is the raw material layer. The main raw materials of the silane coupling agent are functional silane intermediates, including γ-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane and γ-chloropropyltrichlorosilane. , γ-chloropropyltriethoxysilane, etc.; the midstream of the industrial chain is the production layer, and silane coupling agents are technology- and capital-intensive industries. After years of development and accumulation, my country’s silane coupling agent production scale is constantly expanding; the downstream is application layer.
Industry analysts said that silane coupling agents have a wide range of applications. In recent years, with the increasing demand for downstream markets, silane coupling agents have The market size is gradually expanding. At this stage, my country has become the world’s largest silane coupling agent production region. With the improvement of domestic enterprises’ research and development capabilities and the increase in national support, the development prospects of the silane coupling agent market are good. In the future, the industry will continue to be functional and high-end. Directional upgrade.
