Colloidal Silica Market Insights
  • Lucintel forecasts that alkaline colloidal silica will remain the largest segment over the forecast period because it is highly hydrated form of silicon dioxide which is used as an additive in the rubber industry, and it is produced by polymerizing silica from silicate solutions under alkaline conditions to form Nano-meter sized silica souls with a high surface area. 
  • Building and construction is expected to remain the largest segment as colloidal silica enhanced the strength and durability of concrete or cement, and is also used in floor coatings to make the surface scratch-resistant and reduce slip by increasing friction.  
  • APAC will remain the largest region over the forecast period. Increasing construction activities, particularly in India and China, and increasing production for consumer electronics products and semiconductors are driving the demand for colloidal silica in this region.
