Global Methyl Ethyl Ketone Market Driven by Flourishing Paints and Coatings Industry

The report provides an in-depth and professional analysis of the market and covers forecast for the market on a global as well as a regional level. Methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is a commonly used solvent in a variety of industrial applications and is highly favored due to its excellent physical and chemical properties such as fast evaporation point, low boiling point, high viscosity and high solvency.The report states that the global MEK market generated revenues worth US$2,254.1 mn in 2012. Expanding at a moderate 4.50% CAGR between 2013 and 2019, the market’s revenues are expected to rise to US$3,064.5 mn by 2019.

Key uses of MEK are observed in the paints and coatings industry. The development of the construction and infrastructure industry therefore, has a huge impact on the global MEK market. Over the past few years, high growth observed in the construction industry of the Asia Pacific region, especially in China, has greatly increased the demand for MEK in the global market. Other application areas, including textiles and printing inks are also substantially fuelling the demand from the global MEK market.


The report segments the global MEK market on the basis of two criteria: key application areas and key regional markets.Based on the area of application, the report segments the global MEK market into paint and coatings, printing inks, plastics, rubber-based industrial cement, and textile. Based on geography, the report studies the market in North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and the Rest of the World (RoW).

The report states that the application segment of paints and coatings led the global MEK market and generated revenues worth US$1,223.0 mn in 2012. Rapid development of the construction and infrastructure industries in emerging and developing nations will further boost the paints and coatings industry, thereby significantly increasing the demand for MEK in emerging nations. The demand for MEK is also expected to grow in the printing inks, textiles and plastics industries. Growing packaging and publishing industries will also aid the growth of the global MEK market.

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...
