This market research study identifies BASF, Evonik Industries, Occidental Petroleum Corporation, PQ Corporation, and W.R Grace as the leading players in the global sodium silicate market. A comprehensive analysis of this market is also presented by application (healthcare and food, elastomers, paper and pulp, catalysts, detergents, and others) and by geography (the Americas, APAC, Europe, and ROW).
Overview of the global sodium silicate market
Research analysis on the global sodium silicate market identifies that the easy manufacturing processes of sodium silicate will be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. Sodium silicate is manufactured at low cost using advanced reactors, furnaces, and waste glass. The production process of sodium silicate includes some of the widely adopted processes. One of the processes involves the reaction between quartz sand (SiO2) and caustic soda (NaOH) along with water, which is fused at a high temperature of about 1000C in a reactor or furnace. Other common process includes the reaction between quartz sand (SiO2), sodium carbonate, and sodium sulfate at a high temperature in an electrically fired furnace, which yields sodium silicate in the solid form. One of the most popular methods of preparing sodium silicate includes the eco-friendly technique. This technique requires the reaction between rice husk and caustic soda, which is followed by filtration to remove carbon. Technavio's market research analysts predict that this global market will post a revenue of more than USD 6.9 billion by 2021.
The increasing use of nanosystem zeolite is identified as one of the key trends that will gain traction in the global sodium silicate market during the next few years. Sodium silicate is extensively used in the production of zeolite. Zeolite nanosystems exhibit increased efficiency because they have nano-sized pores. In addition, nanopore synthetic zeolites exhibit superior catalytic activity with reduced reaction time and enhanced product yield.
