Demand for Chromatographic Silica Resin Witness Significant Increase in Various End-use Industries Prompting Mass Production
Chromatographic silica resin is the major component in detergent solutions, blood bank products, and industrial cleaning agents. Silica is used in the manufacturing of glassware, eyewares, medical equipment, semiconductors, radios and television monitors. It is a component of many polymers. Among these include polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene terephthalate, polyethylene carbonate, polyethylene glycolate, polypropylene oxide and polystyrene. However, it is the silica present in sand that forms the major part of silica resin. Thus, it is the silica in this that we find the link between health, nutrition, ageing and chromatography.
According
to the recent studies, the demand for chromatographic silica resin has
increased approximately 40% in the U.S. Moreover, there are certain important
reasons that explain the sudden rise in this demand. These are as follows:
Mass production of chromatography
resins
With
the rising demands for the resins, manufacturers are able to meet the increased
demand with mass production. Thus, they are able to provide consumers with high
quality resins at affordable prices. This helps them keep their competition at
bay and remain on top in the chromatography silica market. Apart from this, as
the demand is increasing, the cost of production is also falling, which is a
further contributing factor in increasing profits. It is for all these reasons
that the demand and the prices are increasing in the market.
Food industry
The
demand for the separation is very high in the food industry as it is widely
used in processing all types of food products. This is due to the high rate of
fat content in these food items. However, most of the food processing
industries are using the silica to separate the fat soluble compounds from the
others for various reasons. Among these reasons are reduction in the volume of
the product, increase in its durability and functionality, improvement in the
taste and aroma, etc. It is also widely used in the manufacture of pet food
products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, skin care, etc.
In
addition to this, the chromatographic silica resins are widely used in the
production of industrial chromatography systems. Many of the industries across
the globe use this technique for the purpose of separation of the analyte
molecules from the bulk sample. They are then used for various applications
such as solid phase micropropagation, solid phase solution, adsorption, and
absorption. All these processes with the help of the chromatographic resin
medium can help in the separation of the analyte molecules from the bulk
sample. Hence, they are extensively used in various industries in the chromatography
and related areas.
The
above mentioned advantages have made the silica market resilient and lucrative
in the long run. As compared to the other synthetic materials, the demand,
price and market size of this material had remained stable throughout the past
year and is expected to keep on increasing in the coming years. The demand,
cost and size of the materials are in direct proportion to the forecast period
for which they are manufactured and the projected growth in the economy. Hence,
we can say that the demand, cost and size of the material will determine the
economic growth in the market for the coming years.
