Solid segment is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period
The solid segment is projected to grow at a CAGR during the projected period. This is primarily due to the uptick in the use of smartphones and televisions, which usually require solid electronic chemicals and materials for better functionality and efficiency. Moreover, the growing disposable income is creating demand for luxury goods and electronic consumables in the market, significantly supporting the need for solid-state chemicals.
The liquid segment held the largest revenue share. This dominance is primarily due to their ability to assist in the cleaning process of electronic appliances, mainly isopropyl alcohol. This is adopted by households driven by its potential characteristics, such as antibacterial and antiseptic properties, and effectively removes fingerprints, oils, & adhesives.
Silicon wafers segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023
The silicon wafers segment accounted for the largest market share in 2023 and is likely to retain its market position throughout the forecast period. This is primarily due to the increasing measures to promote silicon wafer manufacturing with the rising use of semiconductors in electronic devices.
Semiconductors segment held the significant market revenue share in 2023
The semiconductor segment held a significant revenue share in 2023. This can be attributable to the growing production of electric vehicles, which stimulates the demand for semiconductors. The ongoing transition from oil-based vehicles to electric vehicles is facilitating a huge need for semiconductor production, subsequently influencing companies to enhance their potential capacity. For instance, in September 2023, Mitsubishi Chemical Company announced its plan to develop a new chip production facility in Japan.
Asia Pacific region registered the largest share of the global market in 2023
The Asia Pacific region held the dominant market share in 2023. This is due to growing government policies to support electronic vehicle production and semiconductor manufacturing, primarily in Japan and India. For instance, in January 2024, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited announced the launch of a new chip-making factory in the US. This is promptly assisting companies to facilitate new production facilities, which, in a way, fuels the demand for electronic chemicals and materials. In 2023, the Japanese government announced an investment of USD 13 billion to fuel the production of semiconductors and Gen AI technology in the country.
Furthermore, in March 2024, RRP Electronics announced an investment of INR 5,000 crore in the outsourced semiconductor assembly and testing (OSAT) in Maharashtra. The increasing investments in semiconductor research activities will require adequate electronic chemicals and materials, driving market growth during the study period. Moreover, the Tamil Nadu government announced the new Semiconductor and Advanced Electronics Policy 2024 to promote the state's potential to export 40% of India's electronics at the Global Investors Meet. This will drive investments in electronics and semiconductor production, which may contribute to the growth of the electronic materials and chemicals market in the region.
The North American region is expected to be the fastest growing region, with a healthy CAGR during the projected period, owing to the growing manufacturing of electronic goods.
