Market Overview:
Polymer Additives are the minor components, which are added to the polymer to modify some of its properties. They are majorly used to enhance properties of the polymer to make it suitable for the desired application. Usually, an additive is selected on the basis of types of polymer additive and application. This leads to developing value added product with improved durability and other desired properties. The polyurethane additives are summed up in the major types namely antioxidants, catalysts, emulsifier, stabilizers, fillers, flame retardants, and others. It is majorly used in the manufacturing of foam, which is utilized by diverse industries namely furniture, construction, automotive & transportation, electronics & electrical, etc. The global polyurethane market is estimated to reach around 2 million tons of annual production with an approximate CAGR of 6%. The developing countries are focusing on infrastructure projects, which drives the growth of building & construction activities. This trend is expected to boost the demand for rigid foams. Furthermore, the automotive and transportation sector is projected to keep its growth trajectory intact to drive the demand for flexible as well rigid foams.
