Lubricants: the largest application segment of the silicone oil market 

Among the various applications, the lubricants segment holds the largest share in the silicone oil market. This large share is attributed to the increasing use of silicone lubricants compared to mineral lubricants as silicone oil lubricants have unique physical and chemical properties. Silicone oil lubricants can withstand high temperature range and possess good dielectric property. Silicone oil based lubricants are widely used in industrial processing such as polymer production, yarn and thread production, textile finishing, and so on. However, water repellents application segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR.

This industry is projected to dominate the market of silicone oil in near future and is the fastest-growing market for silicone oil during 2015 and 2020. Silicone oil is extensively used in myriad homecare & personal care applications owing to its versatility, biocompatibility, conditioning benefits, low surface tension, high permeability, and pressure sensitive properties. The aging population in the North America region and the growing demand from consumers for improved quality personal care products is driving the market of silicone oil.
