Plasticizers Market: Production Volume to Reach 12,109.0 Kilo Tons by 2024, TMR

The global plasticizers market is highly competitive and moderately fragmented, states a research report by Transparency Market Research (TMR). Top players in this market, namely, Exxon Mobil, Evonik Industries, BASF SE, LG Chem Ltd., and Eastman Chemical Co., together, held a share of more than 45% in this market in 2015.

The leading players are focusing on technological developments to produce a variety of plasticizer products with world-class quality in a bid to strengthen their foothold on the market. This, as a result, is likely to intensify the competition within this market over the next few years, reports the study.  
According to TMR, the global market for plasticizers, which was worth US$14.85 bn in 2015, is likely to swell at a CAGR of 5.50% during the period from 2016 to 2024 and attain a value of US$23.87 bn by the end of the forecast period. In terms of production volume, the market is anticipated to touch 12,109.0 kilo tons by 2024. Plasticizers have found significant application in floor walls and coverings, much higher than other applications. Analysts expect the scenario to remain unchanged over the forthcoming years.
Ongoing Infrastructural Advancements to Ensure Asia Pacific’s Lead
The research report, further, provides a comprehensive assessment of the geographical spread of the worldwide market for plasticizers. As per the study, Asia Pacific, Latin America, North America, Europe, and the Middle East and Africa are the key regional markets for plasticizers across the world. Among these, Asia Pacific has acquired the dominant position in this market, thanks to the accelerating usage of PVC products in the housing and construction, automotive, electric and electronics, and the medical and healthcare sectors in this region.
The lead of this regional market is likely to continue during the forecast period, expanding at a CAGR of 6.10%, owing to the infrastructural advancements, fueled by the strengthening economy in Asia Pacific, specifically in China, Japan, Korea, and India. On the flip side, the plasticizers markets in Europe and North America are anticipated to witness a slowdown in their respective growth rates in the near future. Both the markets are nearing maturity, which is likely to impact them adversely over the forthcoming years, notes the study.

Rising Urbanization to Have Most Prominent Impact on Market’s Growth
“The substantial rise in the construction industry, thanks to the rapid urbanization taking place across the world, is having the most significant effect on the global plasticizers market,” says the author of the study. With the economic growth, the rate of urbanization in emerging economies has rocketed, resulting in the increase in construction activities, infrastructural developments in the medical and the healthcare sector, and a considerable growth in the automotive industry, which, consequently, is augmenting the demand for plasticizers, globally.
On the other hand, the rising awareness regarding the harmful effects of plastics on the environment, enforcement of strict government norms limiting the utilization of plasticizers, and the high cost associated with the production of plasticizer may act at a restraint against the growth of this market in the near future. However, the increasing replacement of wood and iron products with plastics, such as doors, windows, floorings, and pipes, will reflect positively this market over the forecast period, states the report.
This report segments the global plasticizers market as follows:
By Product
  • Phthalates
  • Non-phthalates
  • Aliphates
  • Polymeric
  • Others
By Application
  • Wires & Cables
  • Floor Walls & Coverings
  • Consumer Goods
  • Films & Sheets
  • Other Applications

The study presented here is based on a report by Transparency Market Research (TMR) titled “Plasticizers Market (Product - Phthalates, Non-phthalates, Aliphates, and Polymeric; Application - Wires & Cables, Floor Walls & Coverings, Consumer Goods, and Films & Sheets) - Global Industry Analysis Size Share Growth Trends and Forecast 2016 - 2024.

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...
