Segments' Analysis
Polymer Dispersions Market Share: By Resin Type
Based on the resin type, the market is segmented as acrylic dispersions, vinyl dispersions, polyurethane (PU) dispersions, styrene-butadiene (SB) dispersions, and others. It is estimated that the acrylic dispersions segment will lead the market during the forecast period, owing to its large-scale use in water-based coatings for decorative and paper applications. Further, acrylic dispersions are available at low cost in comparison to other dispersions leading to its higher demand in the market.
Polymer Dispersions Market Share: By Application Type
Based on the application type, the market is segmented as decorative & protective coatings, adhesives & sealants, paper, carpet & fabrics, printing ink, and others. The decorative & protective coatings segment held the largest share of the market and is expected to remain dominant during the forecast period. Expanding housing projects in the emerging economies owing to rising urbanization rate along with the growing awareness among consumers regarding harmful effects of VOC contents associated with solvent-based coatings are the major factors driving the demand for polymer dispersion in the decorative & protective coatings application.
Polymer Dispersions Market Share: By Region
In terms of regions, North America dominated the polymer dispersion market and is expected to maintain its dominant position during the forecast period owing to significant demand from coating application especially in interior and furniture coatings. Asia-Pacific is the second-largest market and is expected to witness substantial growth during the forecast period. Significant economic development in the Asia-Pacific region along with the rising disposable income of consumers is driving the building and construction industry which is creating huge demand for paints and coatings. Further, rising awareness among consumers regarding harmful effects of VOC content is acting as a catalyst towards the growth of polymer dispersion in the Asia-Pacific region. China, Japan, India, South Korea, and ASEAN countries are the growth engines of the region and are expected to provide huge growth opportunities to the industry players in the polymer dispersions market.
Market Scope & Segmentation
Polymer Dispersions are raw materials that consist of small particles of polymers that have been dispersed in water. These appear to be milky fluids after processing is complete and are used in protecting wood, leather, and metal, against elements such as microorganisms and water.
Polymer dispersions can be of different resin types such as acrylic, vinyl, polyurethane, styrene-butadiene, and many others. They have their application in a number of areas such as decorative and protective coatings, adhesives, printing ink, fabrics, and similar others.
