The market is segmented by type into room-temperature vulcanize (RTV), liquid silicone rubber (LSR), and high-temperature vulcanize (HTV). In 2024, the HTV segment is expected to dominate with over 52% of the market share. This dominance is due to advancements in manufacturing technologies and the increasing use of HTV in industries such as automotive, aerospace, healthcare, and electronics, where high temperatures are common. The demand for HTV continues to grow as industries prioritize safety, efficiency, and durability in their products and processes. Meanwhile, the LSR segment is anticipated to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, driven by innovations in material science and the demand for biocompatible materials.

Based on the process, the silicone elastomers market is divided into extrusion, molding, calendering, and other processes. The molding process segment is expected to hold the largest share of over 45% in 2024. This segment's large market share is attributed to the increasing demand for LSR injection molding for creating complex parts and advancements in molding technologies. The growing need for molding processes for the mass production of silicone elastomer parts across various industries further boosts this segment. Additionally, the molding process segment is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to ongoing technological advancements.

The end-use industries for silicone elastomers include automotive, aviation & aerospace, consumer goods, electrical & electronics, healthcare, energy, industrial machinery, construction, and other sectors. In 2024, the electrical & electronics segment is expected to account for the largest share of above 35%. This is due to the increasing use of silicone elastomers in manufacturing components such as power supplies, circuit boards, and LED lighting components. The healthcare segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period, driven by the demand for biocompatible materials for medical devices and various implants.

Geographically, the silicone elastomers market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia-Pacific is expected to dominate the market in 2024 with over 53% of the market share. The region's growth is fueled by rapid economic development, particularly in China and India, and the growing healthcare and construction industries. Increased government investments in infrastructure projects and the adoption of silicone elastomers in various industries further drive market growth. Asia-Pacific is also projected to register the highest CAGR of over 9% during the forecast period.
