Market Overview:
The global inorganic anti-block additives market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for inorganic anti-block additives from various end-use industries, such as PE films and PP films. In addition, the growing demand for food packaging is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global inorganic anti-block additives market can be segmented into natural silica, synthetic silica, talc, calcium carbonate and others. Among these segments, synthetic silica is expected to witness highest growth during the forecast period owing to its properties such as high thermal stability and low moisture absorption. Based on application, the global inorganic anti-block additives market can be segmented into PE films and PP films.
Product Definition:
Inorganic anti-block additives are materials that are used to prevent the formation of large particles or lumps in a fluid or semifluid mixture. This type of additive is typically used in plastics and other industrial applications where it is important to maintain a smooth, consistent product. Inorganic anti-block additives can be added as powders, liquids, or gases and work by interfering with the surface tension of the fluids they are mixed with. This prevents the build-up of large clumps that can block flow and disrupt manufacturing processes.
Natural Silica:
Natural silica is a term used for silicon-based compounds, which are found in the form of quartz. Quartz is the most common mineral and has different forms such as SiO2, TrSiO3, and SiC4 among others. Silica or silicon dioxide can also be derived from other natural sources such as volcanic ash or obsidian.
Synthetic Silica:
Synthetic silica is a product, which is manufactured by the chemical reaction of silica with phosgene. It has a high melting point and low surface tension. The product finds application in various industries including construction, paints & coatings, plastics and cosmetics among others. Inorganic anti-block additives are used to prevent or reduce the effect of oil stains on plastic surfaces especially polyethylene and polypropylene surfaces.
Application Insights:
In terms of application, the global market is categorized into PE films, PP films, and others. The other segment includes anti-block additives for paper coatings as well as metalized paper. In 2017, the PP film segment dominated the overall industry with a share of over 40% in terms of revenue. This high share was primarily attributed to its extensive usage in food packaging applications owing to properties such as barrier properties and strength developed through cross-linking process during manufacturing process.
PE Films are expected to be one of fastest growing application segments due to increasing demand from various end-use industries including electrical & electronics and medical sectors on account of excellent adhesion & corrosion resistance offered by product formulations coupled with high performance polyethylene used for manufacturing these products.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global inorganic anti-block additives market and accounted for over 45% of the total revenue share in 2016. The region is expected to witness significant growth on account of rapid industrialization coupled with increasing foreign investments in emerging economies such as China, India, and Japan.
The growing automotive industry across Asia Pacific is anticipated to be a key factor driving demand for these additives over the forecast period. In addition, rising construction activities due to urbanization are also likely to have a positive impact on industry growth over the next eight years.
North America emerged as one of the largest markets accounting for more than 20% of global volume share owing to high demand from end-use industries such as electrical & electronics and medical devices among others which require protection from moisture, dusts & debris while maintaining optimum performance characteristics under various environmental conditions including temperature rise or sudden changes in humidity levels that can render electronic products nonfunctional or cause short circuits that may result into fire hazards among other things.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Inorganic Anti-block Additives from end-use industries, owing to the growing need for high quality and efficient products.
- Rising investments by key players in research and development activities to develop new and innovative Inorganic Anti-block Additives products.
- Growing popularity of Inorganic Anti-block Additives among consumers on account of its properties such as thermal stability, non-toxicity, etc.
- Technological advancements in the production process of Inorganic Anti-block Additives that has resulted in superior quality products with better performance characteristics compared to traditional additives used in plastics processing industry .
