Amino silicone oil, also known as amino-modified silicone oil or amino-functionalized silicone oil, is a type of silicone-based fluid that has been chemically modified with amino groups (-NH2). It is commonly used in various industrial and personal care applications due to its unique properties.

Amino silicone oil combines the benefits of both silicone oil and amino compounds, resulting in a versatile product with a wide range of applications. These silicone oil exhibits excellent lubricating properties and can reduce friction between surfaces. It is often used as a lubricant in textile processing, sewing threads, and fiber production. The oil's low surface tension also contributes to its ability to enhance the softness and smoothness of fabrics. Silicone oil is effective in reducing static electricity buildup on various materials. It can be applied to synthetic fibers, plastics, and other surfaces to prevent static charges from accumulating, which helps to minimize dust attraction and enhance the overall appearance of the material.

KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 Impact

Pandemic Hampered the Demand for Market

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with amino silicone oil market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on various industries, including the amino silicone oil market. Amino oil is widely used in textile, personal care, and other industrial applications. The pandemic caused disruptions in the global supply chain due to lockdown measures, travel restrictions, and temporary closure of manufacturing facilities. This led to a shortage of raw materials, including the chemicals required for the production of amino oil. As a result, the availability of these oil was affected, causing supply chain challenges for manufacturers and consumers. The textile and personal care industries are major consumers of amino oil. However, these industries experienced a significant decline in demand during the pandemic. Lockdowns, social distancing measures, and reduced consumer spending resulted in the closure of textile manufacturing units, reduced production of garments, and decreased demand for personal care products. Consequently, the demand for these oil in these sectors also declined.
