Commercialization of Bio-based Emulsion Polymers to Pave Way for New Entrants in Global Market, Observes TMR


The leading players in the global emulsion polymers market – BASF SE, The Dow Chemical Company, Celanese Corporation, Arkema S.A., and Trinseo S.A. – collectively held a share of 29.9% in 2014. Expanding their product portfolio and catering to a wide range of end uses for emulsion polymers will be the top priority of these key players in the near future, says the new research report published by Transparency Market Research. According to the research report, the opportunity in the global emulsion polymers market will be worth US$54.9 bn in 2023, rising from US$32.2 bn in 2014 at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2015 to 2023.  

“To break through the high level of dominance of the aforementioned players, new entrants will have to develop new ways of manufacturing polymers. The commercialization of bio-based sources is likely to open up new channels to reach a sizeable consumer base,” recommends the lead author of this research report. Forming meaningful alliances with local manufacturers in developing countries is also expected to leverage the presence of larger companies in other regions.


Demand for Paints and Coatings in Developing Regions Renews Demand for Emulsion Polymers

The increasing demand for paints and coatings in the developing regions of Latin America and Asia Pacific have been the critical driving force for the global emulsion polymers market. The rising per capita income in these regions and the subsequent upgrade in the standard of living has led to a growth in the construction activity, which in turn, has resulted in the burgeoning demand for emulsion polymers. Growing awareness amongst builders and consumers about the quality of color, self-repairing ability of paint, and heat sensitivity have pushed manufacturers to undertake new process technologies and deliver innovation, thereby prompting them to increase the usage of emulsion polymers.

Emulsion polymers are also used for manufacturing removable as well as permanent adhesives, which are extensively used in packaging, household furnishings, and footwear. The growing demand for these items has resulted in a considerable demand for emulsion polymers in the adhesives industry. The increasing usage of adhesives in automobile manufacturing and in the aerospace industry has also resulted in an increased demand for emulsion polymers, which is the key ingredient of adhesives.

Emulsion Polymers Market Suffers as Raw Material Supply Dwindles

The surging prices of raw materials used in the production of emulsion polymers such as naphtha and ethane are hampering the overall market. The dependency of these raw materials on crude oil reserves is also restraining the market due to fluctuating prices of petrochemical products. Furthermore, demand for raw materials in various other end-user industries is expected have a negative impact on the supply of raw materials required for manufacturing emulsion polymers.

Acrylics Remain Prominent Segment due to their Unique Properties

The acrylics segment has been steering the growth of the global market and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period to present an opportunity worth US$19.8 bn by 2023. The unique abilities of acrylics such as excellent water resistance, strength, and good adhesion will continue to drive this segment at a pace faster than the others in the global market.
Over the past few years, Asia Pacific has had a stronghold over the global emulsion polymers market as the construction industry across developing countries such as China and India is gaining momentum. Thus, the burgeoning demand for paints and coatings, along with a surge in the demand for adhesives, will result in an increased demand for acrylics.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
