Market Overview:
The global opaque polymer market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for paints and coatings, detergents, and personal care products. In terms of type, the solid content 30% segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than the solid content 40% segment during the forecast period. In terms of application, the paints and coatings segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR than other segments during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
Opaque Polymer is a polymer that does not allow light to pass through it. This makes it ideal for use in products where transparency is not desired, such as paints and coatings. Opaque polymers can also be used to improve the appearance of products by hiding surface imperfections.
Solid Content 30%:
Solid content 30% is a type of solid polymer, which is manufactured by using styrene as the monomer and ethylene or propylene as the comonomer. The product has high molecular weight and low crystallization temperature. It can be used in various applications including packaging, construction, electrical & electronics and automotive industries owing to its properties such as impact resistance, weather ability along with heat & light stability.
Solid Content 40%:
Solid content 40% is a type of solid polymer, which is used as an ingredient in the manufacturing of Opaque Polymers. It has applications in paints & coatings, printing ink, and adhesives industries.
Application Insights:
The opaque polymer used in the detergent industry is expected to witness significant demand owing to its ability to remove oil and grease from the surface. The growing awareness regarding health and hygiene among consumers is likely to propel the demand for detergents over the forecast period. Detergent manufacturers are focusing on product innovation while marketing their products through various advertising campaigns which, in turn, will drive growth of this segment during future years.
Painting & coating application dominated global opaque polymer market with a revenue share of 33.3% in 2017 owing to increasing use of these polymers in automotive paints as well as industrial coatings including flooring coatings, roofing systems and pipelines amongst others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to rapid industrialization, which has led to an increase in product demand from various end-use industries such as paints & coatings, textile, personal care and detergents. In addition, increasing foreign investments coupled with favorable government policies are anticipated to drive industry expansion over the next eight years.
The Asia Pacific opaque polymer market is dominated by China owing to its large-scale production capacity coupled with high consumption volume for packaging applications. However, recently developed economies such as India and Japan have exhibited strong economic growth along with rising disposable income that has resulted in increased product demand across numerous end-use industries including paints & coatings and personal care products.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the packaging industry for products that can protect and preserve the quality of food items
- Growing popularity of transparent polymer films in various applications such as signage, printing, and lamination
- Rising demand for lightweight and durable polymers in automotive and aerospace industries
- Proliferation of new product launches by key players to cater to specific end-use requirements
- Development of innovative technologies that can improve the properties of opaque polymers
