The fourth Section of the report analyses foreign trade of Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan in silicon. It presents dynamics of exports and imports, describes tendencies of export-import supplies, as well as analysis of export-import prices, presents data on volumes and flows of supplies of the greatest exporters and importers of silicon.

The fifth Section of the report is devoted to consumption of silicon in Russia, including it presents supply-demand balance of silicon, as well as estimation of sectoral structure of consumption.

Besides, it describes technology for production of various aluminium-silicon alloys, presents data on volumes and flows of silicon supplies to company-producers of aluminium-silicon alloys, both primary and secondary, as well as to steel-rolling and engine-building plants, being the greatest consumers of the products. Standing of production of organosilicon products in Russia is analyzed.

The sixth Section is devoted to consumption of silicon in Ukraine. The Section presents supply-demand balance of silicon, as well as estimation of sectoral structure of the consumption in 2007. Besides, it describes current standing of the greatest consumers of the products in Ukraine - PO «Kremniipolimer», JV «Intersplav» and LLC «Orisil-Kalush».

The seventh Section of the report is devoted to application of silicon in production of semiconductor product (poly- and mono-silicon) in the CIS. The Section presents description of current standing of operating producers of poly- and mono-silicon, as well as brief characteristics of new projects, scheduled on the nearest years in connection with boom at market of poly- and mono-silicon

The eighth Section of the report presents forecast of development of technical silicon market in CIS countries in 2008-2010.

The Appendices present technical standards (GOST) on silicon, valid in the CIS, as well as describes produced organosilicon compounds and their end-uses. Besides, contact information on producers and the main consumers of silicon in CIS countries is given.
