Epoxy Adhesive Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Epoxy adhesive is a type of thermosetting adhesive which is made byepoxy polymer or resin along with a hardener. It is used to adhere a range of surfaces or materials with a strong, permanent bond capable of tolerating extreme stress and weather conditions. Epoxy is a tough kind of adhesive. It is majorly adopted in the manufacturing of aircraft and automobiles. For strengthening the timber glue, epoxy can be used as a subsequent adhesive. Epoxy adhesives are applied to laminate fiberglass with plywood. Epoxy gum is a majorly used substitute for covering countertops and other moist wood exteriors.

Global Epoxy Adhesive Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing applications in the construction industry

Epoxy adhesives are used in the construction industry, such as for flooring, roofing, wooden, and others. The building and construction is one of the major applications of the epoxy adhesive market. Epoxy adhesives are used as structural adhesives in the construction industry due to their high performance. They provide a number of benefits, such as versatility, durability, and a high degree of heat resistance for binding materials, including wood, metal, plastic, and others. Thus, the extensive use of epoxy adhesives in the construction industry is a major growth driving factor.

• Growing demand in the automotive industry

Epoxy adhesives are widely used in the automotive industry because of their application to the surfaces such as  metal, glass,  plastic, and painted surfaces. They are helpful in the automotive industry for strong bonding, durability, and long-lasting. Epoxy adhesives are used in engines and car gaskets. This growing use in the automotive industry is expected to increase the demand for automotive epoxy adhesives in the forecast period of 2023 to 2030.

Opportunities

• Increasing applications in packaging

The packaging industry is a major consumer of epoxy adhesives in the most of the country due to their useful applications in bonding plastics, metals, and paper & cardboard packaging. Waterborne adhesives are majorly consumed in the industry due to their cheap cost and high bonding strength which is required in the packaging industry. A huge number of water-borne adhesives are consumed in the packaging industry, significantly creating a number of opportunities in the market.  

• Increasing demand in the electronics sector

Epoxy adhesives are used for sticking sensors and cables. The thermal and electrical conductive properties of epoxy adhesives have increased the usage of epoxy adhesives in the electronics sector. Electrically conductive adhesives provide vital components and joints to gain long-term and steady performance from electronics. This is anticipated to fuel the demand for epoxy adhesives in the electrical & electronics industry.

Restraints/Challenges

• Hazardous effects of chemicals used in manufacturing

The manufacturing of epoxy adhesives uses harmful chemicals and gases which are considered hazardous to health when inhaled..  . As epoxy adhesives uses harmful chemicals in manufacturing with respect to environmental and health concerns consumers are avoiding the use of epoxy adhesives in many countries and shifting towards safer alternatives. The health hazards caused by epoxy adhesives resulted in the implementation of strict laws and rules across regions and nations, and becoming a major challenge for the epoxy adhesive market’s growth.

• Growing use of other alternatives

There are multiple alternatives to epoxy adhesives, particularly in construction. The adhesion of two substrates is done using techniques such as welding, riveting, and bolting. Since the construction industry’s substrates are usually tougher. Thus, disassembling of two adhered substrates, as disjoint surfaces are often distorted or destroyed beyond applicability. People are shifting towards other useful alternatives fulfilling their desired requirement, these alternatives are becoming significant restraint for the epoxy adhesives market growth.
