  • Medical Grade

Medical grade accounts for the majority of the market share

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the grade. This includes food grade, industrial grade, and medical grade. According to the report, medical grade represented the largest segment.

The demand for medical-grade LSR is propelled by the increasing focus on patient safety and the stringent regulatory requirements for medical devices. Medical-grade LSR is preferred due to its superior purity and compliance with rigorous medical standards, such as ISO 10993 and USP Class VI, which ensure that the material is non-toxic, non-cytotoxic, and suitable for prolonged contact with the human body. This grade of LSR is extensively used in the production of critical components like seals, gaskets, and molded parts for surgical instruments, as well as in long-term implants, owing to its ability to maintain performance and stability over extended periods.

Breakup by Curing System:

  • Injection Molding
  • Peroxide Cure System
  • Platinum-Based Cure System
  • Condensation Cure System

Injection molding holds the largest share of the industry

A detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the curing system have also been provided in the report. This includes injection molding, peroxide cure system, platinum-based cure system, and condensation cure system. According to the report, injection molding accounted for the largest market share.

The demand for LSR based on injection molding as a curing system is driven by its efficiency in producing high-precision, complex parts at scale, with minimal waste. Injection molding allows manufacturers to achieve consistent quality and tight tolerances, essential for industries like healthcare, automotive, and electronics where reliability and performance are critical. This curing system is particularly advantageous for high-volume production, as it significantly reduces cycle times and labor costs, making it ideal for mass production of intricate components. Additionally, the ability to automate the injection molding process enhances productivity and reduces the risk of contamination, a crucial factor in sectors requiring sterile conditions, such as medical device manufacturing.

Breakup by End Use Industry:

  • Automotive
