What is Water Glass
Water glass is a compound made by combining sodium oxide and silica. It is a fast-expanding in-demand market segment that is used widely in various industrial and commercial applications. It also brings many advantages in manufacturing processes and is used for drilling and hydraulic fracturing. The water glass market is booming, and new research and development are ongoing to find new applications and uses for it. So, how does the water glass market currently pose in the global market.
The rising demand from the construction, oil, and gas industry
These two industries are the top major contributors driving the water glass market’s growth. In the construction industry, water glass is used as a binding agent in cement. Unlike other traditional cementing methods, water glass is more durable and corrosion-resistant. These two features make water glass a problem solver for use in structures exposed to harsh environmental conditions. Next, the water glass is mostly used in drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations in the oil and gas industry. Using water glass in these operations brings multiple benefits to the environment.
The benefits of using water glass in manufacturing processes
Water glass has many versatile uses, for example, as a binder, for creating detergents, soaps, paper products, and many more. As the global industrial market and companies become aware of the benefits of using water glasses over traditional binders like starch and gelatin, the global demand keeps rising. Marketers and investors are taking this chance and investing in this expanding market.
The rise of eco-friendly and sustainable products
As the concerns over environmental health increase because of plastic and non-biodegradable materials, water glass suggests as a more sustainable alternative. Water glasses are made from biodegradable natural materials and are used to produce green concrete. It is also used to preserve eggs, a more sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to refrigeration.
In conclusion,
The water glass market is earned milestones one after another to have such a large demand from these major industries and the global market. It also has proved to be a sustainable and eco-friendly material. The government and marketers encourage the water glass market, while investors are developers are finding new ways to make a better solution. The market will continue to grow in the upcoming years.
