Increasing use of sodium silicate in the detergents & soaps and water treatment plants is expected to drive the global Sodium Silicate market

Market Overview

The Sodium Silicate Market size is projected as USD 11.2 billion at a CAGR of 4.52% for the forecast 2021-2030.

Sodium silicate is manufactured using silica sand and sodium carbonate as raw material. It finds application in detergents & soaps, adhesives, coating, construction material, water treatment, and others. Sodium silicate is widely used in detergents & soaps due to its ability to maintain the pH value of the detergents solution on dilution. Thus, it is increasingly used in detergents for washing dishes, dairy equipment, and textile processing, laundering, and de-inking paper. Additionally, its use in the paper industry is witnessing growth to some extent due to easy surface wetting, viscosity, and high strength. Rising demand for water desalination and purification is augmenting the market growth further. The product is increasingly used as a binder in cement as a result of its ability to resist acid and water. Growing building and construction industry is driving the market growth due to corrosion and high-temperature resistance. Sodium silicate consumption in the food and beverages industry is rising as an anticaking agent.
