Market Overview:
The global rheology additives market is estimated to be valued at US$ 2,362.8 Mn in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ 4,527.4 Mn by 2030, registering a CAGR of 7.5% from 2018 to 2030. In terms of volume, the global rheology additives market is expected to register a CAGR of 5.9% from 2018 to 2030. The global rheology additives market has been segmented on the basis of type into alkali swellable emulsions (ASE), hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsions (HASE), hydrophobically modified polyurethanes (HEUR), hydrophobically modified polyethers (HMPE) and attapulgites.
Product Definition:
The definition of rheology additives is a material that is added to a liquid or solid in order to change its physical properties. Rheology additives are important because they can help to improve the flow characteristics of a material, making it easier to work with. They can also help to improve the stability and strength of a material, making it more resistant to wear and tear.
Alkali Swellable Emulsions (ASE):
Alkali Swellable Emulsions (ASE) is a special type of emulsion, which contains an oil phase and a water-soluble polymer as the swelling agent. The polymer swells when it comes in contact with water, due to its high hydrophilic nature. This process leads to the formation of microemulsions with sizes ranging from 1 nm to 100 microns.
Hydrophobically Modified Alkali Swellable Emulsions (HASE):
Hydrophobically modified alkali swellable emulsions (HASE) is a new type of hydrophobic colloidal system, which consists of an oil phase and a water-soluble polymer as the dispersing agent. The HASE systems are characterized by their rheological properties such as high stability, non-Newtonian flow behavior under shear stress and high surface area.
Application Insights:
Paints and coatings emerged as the leading application segment in 2017, accounting for over 30% of the global market revenue. Paints and coatings are used across a wide range of industries including automotive, construction, decorative paints & wall coverings, industrial machinery & equipment repainting/touch-up/touch-down services among others. Rising infrastructure spending in emerging economies such as India and China is expected to drive demand for paints and coatings which in turn will fuel rheology additives consumption over the forecast period.
Rising demand for 3D printing filaments coupled with development of new additive manufacturing processes has led to increased use of thixotropic agents in inkjet printers especially those used for high volume production such as screen printing inkjet printers or gravure printheads where viscosity plays an important role during ink flow from nozzles into spaces between fibers or onto paper where it is required to have smooth movements without any resistance due to low shear rates.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market with a CAGR of XX% from 2018 to 2030 owing to rapid industrialization and growth in construction, automotive, packaging and textile industries. The region has witnessed significant growth in recent years due to the presence of key manufacturers such as Nippon Paint Holdings Co., Ltd.; Lanxess AG; Croda International Plc.; and BASF SE.
The paints & coatings application segment dominated the global industry owing to growing consumer demand for luxury vehicles, high-end residential houses along with increasing spending on defense sector by various countries including India, China, Japan among others is anticipated drive product demand over next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for adhesives and sealants in the automotive and construction industries
- Growing demand for personal care products
- Rising popularity of polymer-based composites over traditional materials in various end-use applications
- Proliferation of nanotechnology and development of new rheology additives that can improve the performance of polymers at the nano level
- Growing awareness about benefits offered by rheology additives, which is helping to expand their usage in a wider range of applications
