Description
Silicone grease is a translucent, viscous lubricant made majorly from silicone oil, with the addition of a thickening agent such as silica or other fillers. It is famous for its outstanding low volatility, thermal stability and oxidation resistance, making it perfect for high-temperature environments. The types of silicone grease are thermal transfer grease and water-potable silicone grease used in oil & gas, automotive, industrial and chemical applications as they offer lubrication and decreases friction between moving parts. The continuous growth of industrialization worldwide drove the demand for silicone grease in various industrial applications. As industries expanded, the need for effective lubrication, protection, and sealing of mechanical components increased. In addition to this, the automotive industry's growth, including the production of vehicles and aftermarket maintenance, fueled the growth for silicone grease market. It was widely used for lubricating rubber components, such as O-rings, gaskets, and seals, in automobiles. On the other hand, the factors such as cost considerations, competition from alternative lubricants, and compatibility issues may restrain the market growth. The Silicon Grease Market is anticipated to grow at a rate of 4.5% CAGR by 2028.
