Silicone is a high-performance material used in electrical heavy machinery in the form of resin, elastomers (adhesives, sealants), gels, and fluids. Silicone rubber and oil is widely used in switchgear, bus bar joints, transformer, and alternator joints for insulation purpose. The strong bonding between oxygen and silicon atoms makes it a suitable product for high temperature and high voltage applications for power generation. In addition, silicone grease is majorly used in flange connections of gas-insulated switchgear. Silicone grease is a semifluid, which comprises dispersion of thickening agent in a liquid lubricant. It provides protection against corrosion and subsequent SF6 gas leakage.
Rise in prominence of liquid silicone rubber in various high voltage applications in power stations is expected to drive the market growth. This is attributed to thermal stability and high resistance of silicone rubber. The liquid silicone rubber is capable of retaining its properties even at extreme temperature. Rise in prominence of liquid silicone rubber in various high voltage applications in power stations is expected to drive the market growth. This is attributed to thermal stability and high resistance of silicone rubber. The liquid silicone rubber is capable of retaining its properties even at extreme temperature. Easy processing of silicone rubber aids in fast production of high volume of small parts. Silicone rubber used in electrical applications are easily cured. In addition, due to good flow rate of silicone rubber, it can be easily molded using significantly low amounts of energy, which makes it a cost-effective option over other elastomers. However, due to high cost for recycling, the silicone rubber industry players are more reluctant to utilize liquid silicone rubber for further applications. But further application of silicone rubber in new wind energy projects, such as wind turbine systems, switchgear, and alternator will positively impact the market growth.

COVID-19 Scenario Analysis:
• The silicone rubber market in heavy electrical machinery has been severely impacted by the outbreak of COVID-19 across the globe.
• This is attributed to decline in demand from the power sector. As large number of industries and commercial areas are under complete lockdown, the power sector faced a significant drop in market demand; thus, negatively impacting the market growth.
• Due to significant demand drop in the power sector, the industry players are focusing on maintaining existing operations instead of further expansion, which leads to temporary delay for upcoming projects.
• In addition, extended lockdown slowed down the production of silicon rubber products due to limited resources and longer lead time to replenish raw materials.
