Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) Market Size To Surpass $3 Billion By 2025

The global liquid silicone rubber (LSR) market is anticipated to surpass USD 3 billion by 2025. The market stood at nearly USD 1.55 billion in 2015. Growing medical and automotive applications can fuel the market over the forecast period.

Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) finds many conventional applications that are similar to regular rubber. LSR can withstand electrical charge, high temperature, and various chemicals. These characteristics can boost its adoption in various applications.

Rapid advancements may promote its applications in medical implants, drug eluding devices, kitchenware, fitness trackers, LED headlights, bake-ware, and wiper blades. Increasing geriatric population is anticipated to propel the demand for medical devices & implants. This factor is expected to propel market growth over the forecast period.

LSR has a high stability. It produces lesser waste. It can be manufactured in a larger volume owing to the low production costs and shorter cycle time. The product is fast replacing glass, plastic, and latex in various applications. All these factors can positively impact the applications and adoption of liquid silicone rubber. . Rapid urbanizations, improving lifestyle, and population explosion can further fuel the product demand in the near future.

The global LSR market is categorized on the basis of grades, applications, and regions. On the basis of grades, the market is trifurcated into food, industrial, and medical. Medical grade may witness rapid rise in terms of demand during the forecast period. Applications in manufacturing of dialysis filters, oxygen mask instruments, tracheal tubes, syringe stoppers, saccules, and medical instruments can impel the demand. Industrial grade may witness steady demand from aerospace, cosmetics, electronics, construction, and others in the years to come.
