The Paint and Coatings Industry is Currently Seeing a Significant Increase in Demand for Alkyd Resin which is Expected to Drive the Growth of the Global Alkyd Resin Market

Alkyd resins are thermoplastic polyester resins which are polyhydric alcohols heated with polybasic acids or their anhydrides to create alkyd resins. Due to their adaptability and affordability, they are utilized to create weather-resistant protective coatings and are crucial components in many synthetic paints. Typically, they are created through the poly-condensation of alcohol (polyol) and a dicarboxylic acid or its anhydride. For instance, glycerol and phthalic anhydride react to create polyester glyptal. Alkyd resins are also utilized to provide surface coatings for transformers and electrical insulators. These coatings protect the components mechanically, withstand heat, and offer electrical insulation, ensuring the components' secure and dependable operation. Alkyd resins' adaptability extends to how well they work with other resins, colors, and additives. This feature enables formulators to modify the characteristics of alkyd-based products to suit certain needs.

Key Findings of the Study

High-Quality Properties and Compatibility of the Alkyd Resin With a Wide Range of Polymers is expected to Drive the Market

Alkyd resins are highly versatile and cost-effective components used in the manufacturing of synthetic paints. One of the key advantages of alkyd resins is their compatibility with other coating polymers. They can be combined with vinyl resins, such as copolymers of vinyl chloride and vinyl acetate, containing hydroxyl groups, to improve application properties and adhesion, particularly in marine top-coat paints. Alkyd resins can be blended with acrylic resins, epoxy resins, polyurethane resins, and other coating polymers to achieve desired characteristics and meet specific application requirements. By combining alkyd resins with these polymers, manufacturers can modify the properties of the finished coatings, including gloss, hardness, chemical resistance, weather ability, and drying time.

For instance,

• In August 2020, an article published in PubMed Central focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and properties of a rapidly drying short oil length chain-stopped alkyd resin. Specifically, the study examines the utilization of gum resins a modifier in the alkyd resin (RA-GR), along with the preparation of a benzoic acid modified resin (RA-BA). Comparative analysis between the two modified resins revealed that the gum resin and modified resin (RA-GR) displayed notable advantages in paint applications. It exhibited superior adhesion to metal surfaces and demonstrated shorter drying times without compromising the gloss levels
• In May 2019, THE CREBONIT GROUP launched the CREBOKYD Monocoat KE83 E product which is specifically formulated for use in the industrial sector, catering to applications that require fast drying times and a high level of gloss. This product combines the proven short oil alkyd resin with specialized acrylic resins. This product has an exceptional high gloss finish (> 95% gloss in the 60° V), minimal haze (< 20), and a scratch-resistant surface, all while maintaining the renowned fast drying properties

Hence, the compatibility of alkyd resins with other polymers allows for the creation of versatile and high-performance coatings. By formulating coatings with the right combination of polymers, manufacturers can achieve a balance of properties that result in durable and protective coatings for various applications in the building and construction, automotive, marine, and industrial sectors, which is ultimately expected to boost the global alkyd resin market.
