The Demand for Fumed Silica Has Risen Exponentially to Reach Over 250 Thousand Tonnes in 2021, and IT is Expected to Further Grow at a CAGR of 4.46% from Now Until 2035

The demand for Fumed Silica has risen exponentially to reach over 250 thousand tonnes in 2021, and it is expected to further grow at a CAGR of 4.46% from now until 2035.

Fumed silica is formed in a flame and consists of minute amorphous silica droplets that have fused into branched, chainlike, three-dimensional secondary particles. Using the pyrolysis process, which involves the reaction of silicon tetrachloride with oxygen in a flame, fumed silica is generated. Fumed Silica is also known as pyrogenic silica and often employed as a thickening agent. It functions as a desiccant just like silica and employed as an anti-caking agent in various chemicals. Due of its property to diffuse light, it is utilized in cosmetic items. In items like toothpaste, it serves as a mild abrasive. Other niche applications of Fumed silica include adhesives, paints, coatings, printing inks, polyester resins, silicon elastomers, adhesives, sealants, and vacuum insulated panels.
