Report Overview @
Sodium
silicate is a colorless water-soluble compound made from oxides of
sodium and silica. It is prepared by the reaction of silica sand and
sodium carbonate at high temperatures ranging between 1200°C and
1400°C. The aqueous form of sodium silicate is called water glass.
Sodium silicate is widely used in various applications such as
bleaching of paper, deinking of wastepaper, detergents drilling
fluids, adhesives, water treatment, foundry and soil solidification.
Growth
in the detergents market in Europe is anticipated to be one of the
primary factors driving demand for sodium silicate in the region over
the next few years. Furthermore, growth in the automotive industry in
countries such as Germany and Italy is projected to boost the demand
for sodium silicate in Europe as it is extensively used as filler for
elastomers in automotive tires. The automotive tire industry has been
experiencing notable growth over the past few years. This trend is
expected to continue during the forecast period and in turn is
expected to fuel demand for sodium silicate in Europe.
Increasing
demand for sodium silicate in food & healthcare applications and
subsequent growth of these industries in Europe is likely to boost
market growth. However, presence of substitute products, such as
trisodium phosphate and sodium carbonate, for dyeing applications
coupled with fluctuation in prices of raw materials is expected to
hamper market growth. Rising usage of sodium silicate for enhanced
oil recovery (EOR) applications is anticipated to open up new
opportunities for market growth.
Detergents
was the largest application segment, accounting for over 35% of the
total market share in 2013 in Europe. Elastomers is estimated to be
the fastest growing segment during the forecast period due to growth
in the automotive industry in the region. Furthermore, catalysts and
other applications are likely to witness above-average growth during
the forecast period.
Germany,
France and Italy together accounted for over 40% of the European
sodium silicate market in 2013. Additionally, these countries are
expected to witness the fastest growth in the sodium silicate market
over the forecast period on account of increasing manufacturing
activities of automotive tires. Countries present in Rest of Europe
such as UK, Spain, and the Netherlands are anticipated to witness
above-average growth over the forecast period due to the growth of
the detergents industry.
