Market definition
Epoxy resin is a polymer based raw material which is used as a chemical in paints and coating. Furthermore, it provides high performance with great features such as temperature stability, corrosion resistance, endurance, stability and are also able to keep the generators and transformers clean and free of short circuits. Epoxy resin are synthesized bio based curing agents which are used for formation of natural rubber, sugar, vegetable oil and so on.
Global Epoxy Resin Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Increasing demand for paints and coatings from the construction
Growing demand for paints and coatings is a major factor driving the growth of the epoxy resin market. Epoxy resin-based products dry quickly and provide an excellent coating for the construction industry. Epoxy resin-based paints are commonly used in concrete floor paints and primers. They keep surfaces from corroding and rusting. These coatings are found in primers and are used to improve the adhesion of automotive and marine components. As a result, rising demand for paints and coatings is expected to drive market growth, thereby directly impacting the epoxy resin market.
- Rapid expansion of aerospace sector
Aircraft are subjected to extreme weather and climatic stress, which result in wear and tear of the outer parts of aircraft. Multiple properties such as heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and UV protection offered by these resins help in the reduction of carbon emissions. Manufacturers are emphasizing product diversification in order to capitalize on new value-added application such as metal protection, plastic tooling, and automotive lightweight composites. The growing popularity of lightweight aerospace coatings among major aircraft manufacturers will boost market demand.
Opportunities
- Increasing adoption of bio-based polyepoxides to boots industry growth.
Epoxy resins were created to reduce the environmental impact of petroleum-based resins. Biomaterials such as lignin, vegetable oils, rosins, and other biomaterials are used to replace up to 50% of petrochemicals. These materials eliminate the need for BPA, which is hazardous and must be handled with care. This type of resin has a wide range of application, including coating materials, adhesives, composites, and other cross-linked materials. The increased demand for sustainability in many end-use industries is expected to create a market opportunity for bio-based epoxy resin.
Restraints/ Challenges
- Fluctuation in the prices of raw materials is the most significant barrier to the growth of the epoxy resin market
Significant numbers of epoxy resins are usually derived from oils for their chemical composition or from their mining process to derive energy which is used in coatings. The prices of oil are highly volatile and several factors impact the prices to either drive up or down. As a result, oil prices have a significant impact on the price of raw materials for coatings.
- Health hazards due to epoxy curing agents
Health risks associated with epoxy resin flooring, such as the release of strong and toxic fumes that can cause irritation in the lungs and eyes, are factors limiting market growth. Furthermore, asthmatic people who are exposed to these fumes may experience breathing difficulties. This factor can have a negative impact on the growth of epoxy resin.
