SIC POWDER MARKET OVERVIEW

The global sic powder market size was USD 0.27 billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 0.47 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 6.3% during the forecast period from 2025 To 2033.

Silicon carbide is a hard chemical compound which is produced by mixing silicon and carbon. It is used in semiconductor electronics devices that operate at high temperatures or high voltages. It has high chemical stability with excellent corrosion resistance. In addition, it possesses high thermal conductivity with low thermal expansion coefficient which leads to high thermal shock resistance.

Silicon carbide is used in abrasive machining processes such as grinding, sandblasting, and water-jet cutting. It is used as a loose or solid abrasive material in a variety of applications due to its high abrasion resistance. It is also used to melt glass and non-ferrous metal, heat treatment of metals and ceramics production. Due to multiple benefits provided, SIC powder market is expected to grow substantially in the forecast period.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Pandemic Hampered the Demand for SIC Powder Market

Covid-19 pandemic led to supply chain disruptions in the whole world. Manufacturing companies for most of the industries, such as steel, automotive, and aerospace and others closed all their operations and many companies were shut down until reopening instructions received from the government authorities. Decrease in demand from various end-user industries negatively impacted the demand for silicon carbide. In addition, due to reduction in labour force as a result of social distancing norms, the entire industry witnessed significant decrease in the production. Lockdown measures led to a temporary prohibition on production and processing, as well as import and export, across a range of businesses and electrical utilities, which reduced the demand SIC products from these customers.

LATEST TRENDS

Increasing Demand for SIC Powder to Fuel Market Growth

The growth of SIC powder market can be attributed to various factors such as the increasing demand for, recent developments in the field science and technology, and changing strategy of market players. Due to higher thermal conductivity, SIC is used in electric vehicles as semiconductor material. Increasing demand for electric vehicles has increased demand for SIC. The India Electronics and Semiconductor Association (IESA) signed an MoU with the Singapore Semiconductor Industry Association (SSIA) to establish and develop trade and technical cooperation between the electronics and semiconductor industries of both countries. In addition, the growth of manufacturing companies, the increasing investment in steel and semiconductor industry, and introduction of new product lines by key industry players is also expected to boost the growth of market during the forecast period.
