Global Silicon Metal Market Definition

Silicon Metal is a grey metallically lustrous semi-conductive metal that is utilized in the production of steel, aluminum alloys, solar panels, and microchips. Silicon Metal is generally produced by smelting quartz and coke in a submerged in an energy-intensive, electric arc furnace. Further processing of the material into different product grades allows its use in various industrial applications. Silicon Metal is necessary for the production of aluminum and chemical products, as it provides them with fundamental attributes. A wide range of current technologies depends on silicon material. Silicon Metal is an essential material in the electronics and solar industries. The application of Silicon Metal in battery applications to improve energy storage capacity and battery life is rising. Silicon Metal acts as a raw material for a generous number of industrial and consumer products such as sealants, adhesives, lubricants, coatings, and polishes & cosmetics.

Global Silicon Metal Market Overview

In the report, the market outlook section mainly encompasses fundamental dynamics of the market which include drivers, restraints, opportunities and challenges faced by the industry. Drivers and Restraints are intrinsic factors whereas opportunities and challenges are extrinsic factors of the market.

The growth of the automotive sector is projected to drive the Silicon Metal Market during the forecast period. The automotive industry is a major consumer of silicon-based aluminum alloys. This, in turn, boosts the demand for Silicon Metal and aluminum in the automotive sector. Additionally, increasing demand for aluminum-silicon alloys and increasing utilization in the solar industry is estimated to boost the market growth.

However, the production cost of Silicon Metal depends on key variables such as cost of power, raw materials, labor, and transportation. The Silicon Metal producing industry requires a long-term supply of stable power, as the production process consists ignition of an electric arc which is necessary for the reduction of quartz in Silicon Metal. The requirement of high temperature and high power makes the production process energy-intensive; this significantly increases the overall production costs. Charcoal, quartzite, and wood chips are raw materials employed in the production of Silicon Metal and hence, Silicon Metal manufacturers prefer physiographic regions with significant deposits of quartz and charcoal. Thus, high production costs and market volatility are projected to hamper the Silicon Metal Market.
