The market for conductive silicone is expected to grow at a CAGR more than 5% globally during the forecast period. Conductive silicone is a silicone material filled with carbon having good sensing properties. In addition, its electrical resistance is variable by deformation or compression thus makes it a suitable material for deformation sensors or developing force. The growing application of conductive silicone in the consumer electronics and automotive industry has been driving the market growth.



Key Highlights

  • However, the growing awareness of bio-based chemicals as a substitute and its electrical resistance varying nature during compression or deformation are likely to hinder the growth of the studied market. Moreover, unfavorable conditions arising due to the COVID-19 outbreak have led to a halt in industrial production temporarily which is also expected to hamper the market growth.
  • The research and technological development in electrically conductive silicone applications in medical devices are likely to provide opportunities for the conductive silicone market over the next five years.
  • Asia-Pacific region dominates the conductive silicone market, owing to rising demand from automotive and electronics & telecommunications industry in the region.
