Description
Market Synopsis of Global Polycaprolactone Polyol Market
Polycaprolactone Polyol is a special high performance class of polyester polyol. Polycaprolactone polyols are formed by ring opening of hetrocyclic ring by glycol, the reaction results into narrow mpolycaprolactone polyol industryolecular weight distribution. The lack of high molecular weight tail makes low viscosity in polyester polyols, this leads to usage of polycaprolactone polyol in a variety of end-uses such as resin, footwear, automotive, pharmaceutical among others.
The global polycaprolactone polyol market is expected to register a healthy growth and is projected to reach USD 791.4 million by 2023 due to its wide range of application in foam, adhesive, coating and elastomer.
Foam which exists in rigid and flexible form accounted largest market share of 32% in 2016 and expected to grow at highest CAGR during the forecast period due to its properties such as hardness, high tensile strength and compression strength, strong impact and abrasion resistance. Coating accounted second largest market share due to the low viscosity of the polycaprolactone polyol.
The coating is followed by adhesive, elastomer and other applications. In addition to this, the global polycaprolactone polyol market is segmented on the basis of end users as resins, footwear, automotive, pharmaceutical, printing, commodity and others.
Resin accounted largest value market share and expected to grow at CAGR of 11.43% during the forecast period due to rising demand of bio-degradable plastics across the world and excellent dynamic properties, high resiliency, flexible at low temperature, improved hydraulic stability of polycaprolactone polyol.
Resin segment followed by footwear industry, accounted second largest market share due to increased demand for comfortable footwear and increasing sports activity generally for health and fitness has significantly increased the focus on sportswear. Footwear segment is followed by automotive, pharmaceutical, printing, commodity and other segment.
