Global
Silicon Dioxide Market: Overview
Silicon
dioxide also commonly known as silica is a chemical compound which is
abundantly found in earth’s crust derived from reaction between
silica and oxygen. Silicon dioxide is present in natural as well as
synthetic form. Due to ubiquitous nature of silicon dioxide it is
abundantly formed in various forms such as crystalline, amorphous
among others. The most popular crystalline form of silicon dioxide is
quartz which is commonly found in granite and is also main component
of sandstone. Due to abundance presence of silicon dioxide, it finds
application across different industries such as pharmaceutical,
chemical and food among others. The most common form used for the
industrial purposes is amorphous silica nanoparticles which
predominantly used across different industries due to its peculiar
physiochemical properties. It is also used as primary oxide material
in the formation of glass and ceramics.

Global
Silicon Dioxide Market: Drivers and Restraints
Abundance
functionality and occurrence of silicon dioxide is primarily driving
the market of silicon dioxide. Silicon dioxide is used across
different industries. In food industry, the most widespread use of
silicon dioxide is that of anti-caking agent, due its property to
absorb excess moisture and thereby, prevents the sticking of the
ingredients together. Therefore, it is predominantly used in the
manufacturing of spices, salt and chilli powder among other products
as it prevents their clumping. Furthermore, it can also be used as
anti-forming agent which is used production of beer and wine to
remove yeast and protein form it. Moreover, due to its anti-caking
property, silicon dioxide is also abundantly used in the
manufacturing of health supplements as it prevents the sticking of
ingredients without interfering with other active ingredients. Hence,
extensive applicability portfolio of silicon dioxide is propelling
the market growth. Certain peculiar properties such as removal of
unwanted impurities, protection against diffusion of dopants and high
temperature stability significantly influences the silicon dioxide
market. Owing to these properties, it is abundantly used in the
formation of semiconductor, circuit boards, piezoelectric and
refractory material among others. Thus, pervasive application of
silicon dioxide is spurring the demand for silicon dioxide.
However,
silicon dioxide has also been associated with occupational hazards.
Direct exposure to silicon dioxide may lead to silicosis, which is a
lung disease caused due to excessive inhalation of crystalline silica
particles over a longer period of time. Thus, affecting the market
growth of crystalline form of silicon dioxide particularly in glass
manufacturing, mining sector where there is significant exposure

Global
Silicon Dioxide Market: Region wise Outlook
The
global silicon dioxide market is categorised into seven regions,
namely, Western Europe, Eastern Europe Middle East and Africa (MEA),
Asia Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ), Japan Latin America and, North
America. North America holds the major share in the global silicon
dioxide market. With robust technological development combined with
widespread applicability of silicon dioxide across industries is
spurring the growth of the market. The silicon dioxide market in
Western Europe is expected to expand at substantial growth rate.
However, with associate health hazards and stringent regulation is
Europe, the growth prospects of silicon dioxide may get affected
during the forecast period. The APEJ silicon dioxide market is
capitalizing on the opportunity of new product portfolio derived from
silicon dioxide. Owing to availability of resources and opportunistic
investment platform in APEJ is expected to spur the market growth of
silicon dioxide.
