Development of Light and Green Buildings Displays Substantial Demand for Construction Sealants Market 2024

Sealants, commonly known as caulking in the construction industry, are ubiquitously used to block dust, heat, sound, and fluid through apertures at joints in building structures. They display a number of properties and are particularly effective in waterproofing processes to provide a barrier for moisture in built structures. Sealants can provide acoustic and thermal insulation and can also be used as fire barriers. Sealants have been in use for several hundred years. Asphalt and bitumen that are naturally occurring have been used as sealants for many centuries. 

Sealants comprise inert filler material and are usually composed of an elastomer to fulfill the flexibility and elongation requirements. Sealants are usually present in semi-liquid and viscous state with little to zero flow characteristics. Adhesion, corrosion resistance, and insolubility are some of the desirable properties of sealants that make them ideal for water proofing in the construction industry. 
The report presents an overview of the construction sealants market in a ground-up manner looking into market dynamics, growth trends, and product development that will influence the growth curve for the 2016-2024 period. The publication makes for an interesting read as facts and figures pertaining to developments in the market are presented in a chronological order. 
Global Construction Sealants Market: Trends and Opportunities 
The construction sealants market is displaying significant growth due to the increasing application of sealants for flooring and expansion jointing in commercial and residential building structures. In particular, in emerging economies, high rate of development of residential buildings is driving the construction sealants market. Furthermore, environmental concerns leading to the development of light and green buildings is expected to display a substantial demand for construction sealants across the world. 
However, government regulations in place across several countries for VOC emissions is restraining the market’s growth. The introduction of biobased and anaerobic sealants is anticipated to benefit the market’s growth in future.
Global Construction Sealants Market: Regional Outlook 
Europe stood as a major market for construction sealants in 2014. Germany, Russia, Turkey, Austria, and the Netherlands are major contributors to the European construction sealants market. Asia Pacific is expected to display the fastest growth in the construction sealants market in the forthcoming years. In this region, rapid urbanization and construction of commercial complexes for the increasing economic development are benefitting the construction sealants market for building structures.
The Middle East and Africa regional market is expected to display significant growth over the forecast period. In particular, in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, the increasing number of residential building construction to keep up the demand for increasing home ownership supported by easy residential mortgaging schemes will benefit the construction sealants market. 
Latin America is expected to display moderate growth over the forecast period. Argentina and Brazil are the major contributors to the Latin America construction sealants market due to the increasing urbanization and industrialization. 
Global Construction Sealants Market: Competitive Landscape
Some of the key players in the global construction sealants market include BASF SE, KGaA, Fuller, Cytec Industries Inc., General Electric, PPG Industries Inc., Henkel AG & Co., 3M, The Dow Chemical Company, Master Bond, and Sika AG. 
Research and development for introduction of innovative products is what key players in the market are focused on. Stakeholders in the construction industry are investing heavily in using advanced technologies for product development to serve the changing needs of the construction industry.

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...
