Nano Silica Market Dynamics:

The rising global nano silica production drives the market growth due to an increase in nano-silica usage in various application segments such as concrete, agriculture, gypsum, battery nano-silica others. The ability of raw materials such as silica and silicate to produce nano-silica boosts the market growth.

Growing concerns over renewable sources and they envision silica production and for nano-silica. For instance, Organic coating, i.e., silica from rice husk, a smart coating material with self-cleaning properties, is applied on surfaces for preventing corrosion and dust. It is a non-toxic, durable coating applied to all household appliances, buildings, automobiles and industrial components.

However, the price fluctuation leading to volatile raw material prices and the complexity of nano-silica manufacturing processes hinders the market growth. The release of toxic gases using the nano-silica for the concrete mixtures shall negatively impact the market growth. For instance, according to the United States Occupational Safety negatively impact SHA) estimated that around 34,591 foundry workers are currently exposed to respirable silica in the United States.

Nano Silica Market Segmentation Analysis

The Global Nano Silica market is segmented based on type as Porous (P Type) and Spherical(S Type). P-type nano-silica accounts for the highest market share than the S-type nano-silica due to rising demand from the concrete industry for building residential and commercial buildings. It is characterized by numerous nanopores with a pore rate of 0.61 ml/g and exhibits a higher ultraviolet reflectivity.

S-type nano-silica has a smaller surface area and lowers ultraviolet reflectivity in comparison to the P-type nano-silica. It is used for da developing electronics, coatings, and varnishes due to its reducing viscosity, flash and increasing fluidity. It is used for external additive materials, sintering materials, filler for liquid-type sealants and others. Companies are using P-type nano-silica for developing high content filler material for different resin applications due to its dispersivity property.

Further, the market is also classified based on application into concrete mixtures, rubber additives, semiconductors, healthcare, coating additives, agriculture, plastics, etc. Among these segments, the rubber additives segment accounts for the highest market share due to increased usage of nano-silica as an additive in the different kinds of rubbers which includes natural rubber, ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), ethylene acrylic rubber (AEM), nitrile rubber (NBR) and silicone rubber. It is used as a reinforcing agent for enhancing mechanical strength and properties such as anti-friction, toughness, anti-aging, and durability to enhancers manufacturing companies using nano-silica for manufacturing the tires, and rubber durability stiffness, and grip.

The coating segment is expected to have positive market growth due to increased demand for the nano-silica in superhydrophobic coating to create the high-water contract and low sliding angle. Nano silica is effective in increasing the scratch resistance in all kinds of coating formulations. Paint industries are using nano-silica for improving the paint properties, such as scratch resistance, water repellence, and corrosion protection that the paint against corrosion. Rising government regulations regarding CO2 emissions due to large cement quantities lead to increased CO2 emissions and the greenhouse effect. This rare increasing demand for nano-silica as a cement replacement an additive for reducing the cement content in concrete mixtures.
