The growth in electric vehicle manufacturing is anticipated to drive the expansion of the MS polymers market in the future. Electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by electric motors that draw energy from rechargeable batteries or fuel cells, rather than traditional combustion engines. Several factors contribute to the rise in EV manufacturing, including government regulations, consumer savings on fuel costs, and heightened environmental concerns. MS polymers are used for bonding and sealing various components, such as battery enclosures, body panels, and interior parts, ensuring structural integrity and protection against moisture and contaminants. For example, in January 2024, a report from Kelley Blue Book, a US-based Cox Automotive company, indicated that in 2023, a record 1.2 million car buyers in the United States opted for electric vehicles, representing 7.6% of the total U.S. vehicle market, an increase from 5.9% in 2022. Thus, the rise in electric vehicle manufacturing is driving demand in the MS polymer market.

The thriving road transportation industry emerges as another key factor propelling the MS polymer market. MS polymers play a crucial role in various facets of this sector, including concrete joint sealing and panel bonding in vehicles. Statistics from the American Trucking Association underline the industry's robustness, with US gross freight revenues reaching $940.8 billion in 2022, constituting 80.7% of the nation's freight bill. With an estimated 11.46 billion tons of freight transported by trucks in 2021, coupled with extensive truck travel distances, the indispensability of MS polymers in this industry signifies their role in market growth.

Innovations in biodegradable polymer technology are reshaping the MS polymer market landscape. In February 2023, Companies like Kaneka Corporation are pioneering plant-derived biodegradable polymers synthesized using CO2, aiming for recycling-oriented bio manufacturing technology independent of fossil resources. The shift toward sustainable manufacturing aligns with market demands for environmentally friendly solutions.

Companies are focusing on novel product development, exemplified by innovations like two-part MS polymer adhesives. In June 2023, SABA Adhesives & Sealants introduced Sabatack 950 Boost, a single-sausage adhesive eliminating separate mixing. This time-saving adhesive with precise mixing ratios boasts resistance to moisture, UV rays, and chemicals, ensuring durable bonding across diverse materials like wood, concrete, metal, and plastics.

In March 2022, Kraton Corporation, a US-based polymers company, merged with DL Chemical Co. Ltd. in a deal valued at $2.5 billion. This acquisition is intended to bolster their global presence and promote sustainable innovation in the specialty chemicals market by leveraging their combined resources and capabilities. DL Chemical Co. Ltd., based in South Korea, produces metallocene, polyethylene, and polybutene.

MS polymer, also known as modified silicone, represents a category of adhesive and sealant technology utilizing a silyl-functionalized polymer as its primary component. These polymers possess a distinctive molecular structure enabling them to crosslink with moisture present in the air. This interaction results in the formation of a robust and long-lasting bond with diverse substrates.

The main types of MS polymers are SMP (Silyl Modified polyether) and SPUR (Silyl Terminated Polyurethanes), which are used for several applications, including adhesives, sealants, and coatings. These are used in several end-use industries, including building, construction, automotive, transportation, industrial assembly, and electronics.
