North America And Australia Silica Market Segmentation

Grand View Research has segmented the North America and Australia silica market on the basis of application and region:

Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Oil & Gas, Glass, Foundry Sand, Rubber, Agrochemicals, Oral Care, Food, Desiccants, Paints & Coatings, Others.

  • Based on applications, oil & gas accounted for the largest revenue share of more than 33.0% in 2020. Natural gas and oil are typically produced through unconventional means using horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing to release trapped oil or gas. Silica plays an essential role in the completion of unconventional oil and natural gas wells, specifically in hydraulic fracturing techniques.
  • Foundry sand is one of the fastest-growing application segments of the market. Silica is used in foundry sand owing to its high melting point as compared to other alloys for mixing with a binder to produce a mold that can hold the molten metal for casting. According to the American Foundry Society, metal casting is one of the essential sectors in the U.S. manufacturing industry and was valued at USD 44.3 billion in 2020. Factors, such as accuracy, high precision, shorter cycle time, and surface finish, are expected to contribute to the growing demand for metal casting.
