Fluorosillicone, also known as Fluro Vinyl Methyl Siloxane (FVMQ) is processed by compression molding, calendaring, and liquid injectionmolding. FVMQ is a modified version ofsilicon rubber that possess mechanical and physical properties such as high resistance to mineral oils and fuels. In addition,it is majorly used as a sealant due to its high tensile strength, and high-temperature, UV, and ozone resistance. Furthermore, FVMQ exhibits good compression set and resilience property when exposed to air, sunlight, ozone,and hydrocarbons.
Proliferating demand for 3D models in the production of functional prototypes and replacement parts fuelsits requirement in automobiles, aircraft, and medical segments. Further,usage of sealants in construction material to prevent fluids from passing through surfaces drives the market growth. In addition, demonstrated application of flexible Fluorosillicone parts in valves andsealingelements fuelsits demand during the upcoming period. However, highraw material cost and rise in production cost are the factors anticipated to hamper the market growth during the forecast period.But, new product developments, such as light weight sealant with around 20% weight savings compared to traditional sealants is expected to penetrate new market segments in the aerospacesector creating further growth. For instance, PPG industries provide lightweight sealants that are designed to add less weight to the airplane and vehicle enhances the fuel efficiency.
The global Fluorosillicone market is segmented into type, product type, application, end user, and region. By type, the market is divided into liquid FVMQ, solid FVMQ and semi-solid FVMQ.
