Silicone waterproofing agents have a wide range of applications and the competitiveness of local companies needs to be improved

Silicone waterproofing agent is a high-efficiency waterproofing agent synthesized from monomethyl alkane. It is a new type of high-efficiency waterproofing material that is pollution-free and non-irritating. It is widely used in advanced countries in the world and has high impermeability, high coverage, High permeability, high bonding strength and other advantages.

Silicone waterproofing agent can form a colorless and transparent film on the surface of the building, which can resist ultraviolet rays, moisture, and weathering. Silicone waterproofing agents can be divided into water-based silicone waterproofing agents and oil-based silicone waterproofing agents. Water-based silicone waterproofing agent is a colorless to light yellow liquid that is non-toxic and non-volatile. When mixed with cement mortar, it can act as a retardant and reinforcing agent. It is often used for waterproofing treatment of building exterior walls, pools, underground projects and roofs. Oil-based silicone waterproofing agents are mostly used in ceramics, glazes and floor tiles.

According to the“2023-2028 Silicone Waterproofing Agent Industry Market In-depth Research and Investment Prospect Forecast Analysis Report” released by the Industrial Research Center , Silicone waterproofing agents have a wide range of applications. In the industrial field, they can be used for wall cleaning, anti-pollution, anti-acid rain, and waterproofing of reservoirs, cisterns, sewage treatment plants, etc. In the agricultural field, they can be used for the construction of drainage and irrigation channels, and also It can be used for waterproofing and mildew-proofing of exterior walls of houses, moisture-proofing of interior decoration, protection of ancient buildings, and construction of precision instrument rooms and power distribution rooms. As the silicone waterproofing agent industry continues to develop, product performance continues to improve, and demand from downstream industries continues to increase, the industry has good development prospects.

Driven by market dividends and demand, the number of domestic silicone waterproofing agent manufacturers continues to increase, and the market competition is fierce. Because the foreign silicone waterproofing agent industry has a long history of development, relatively advanced production technology, strong brand influence, and certain competitive advantages, domestic companies are also constantly developing, and the gap with the international level is gradually narrowing. At present, the main manufacturers of silicone waterproofing agents on the market include BASF (China) Co., Ltd., GCP Chemical Materials (China) Co., Ltd., Swiss Sika Group, Degao (Guangzhou) Building Materials Co., Ltd., and Shandong Dayi Chemical Co., Ltd. , Guangdong Xinxiangxing Technology Co., Ltd., China United Engineering Co., Ltd., Dejialang Chemical Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., Hangzhou Ruijiang New Material Technology Co., Ltd., etc.

Industry analysts said that silicone waterproofing agents have high safety, low overall product cost, good air permeability, convenient transportation, and resistance to It has the advantages of strong penetration ability and is widely used in various fields. The market demand is large and the industry development prospects are good. However, current silicone waterproofing agents still have deficiencies such as insufficient waterproofing performance and leakage in places other than exterior walls. Relevant manufacturing companies need to increase capital investment, improve production processes, improve product performance, and enhance their core competitiveness.
