Description
Polyurethane dispersion is a colloidal dispersion, which is used to prepare polyurethane coatings and adhesives and can be broadly categorized into solvent based and water based. Polyurethane dispersion is used in various end-use applications such as coatings, leather finishing, adhesives & sealants, fiberglass sizing, paper & textile, and others due to their excellent properties such as high abrasion resistance, durability, and high elasticity. Water-based polyurethane dispersion with high solid content and greater performance are replacing traditional solvent-based systems. These water-based polyurethane dispersions provide all properties of comparable solvent-based systems.
According to Market Research Future Analysis, cumulatively, the global polyurethane dispersion market is predicted to reach USD 1237.4 million by 2023 at a CAGR of 6.28% over the assessment period. Among the type segment, water-based is foreseeable to register tremendous growth during the review period due to strict regulations regarding the use of solvent-based paints and coatings in numerous application. On the basis of the application, coatings application segment accounted for over 47% share in 2016 and is projected to witness a healthy CAGR of around 6.98% over the forecast period. The factor attributed to segmental growth is increasing application scope of coatings in the automotive and construction industry. Moreover, increasing number of working professionals along with growing many startup firms has raised the demand for good quality interior and furniture, which is further raised the consumption of coatings and is likely to propel the demand for polyurethane dispersion over the assessment period. However, volatility in oil prices put a direct influence on the raw material prices, which is likely to hinder the market growth over the forecast period. Regionally, Asia Pacific has emerged as the dominant region in the global polyurethane dispersion market and holds the maximum market share, in terms of both volume and value. In the Asia Pacific region, China has emerged as the largest market for polyurethane dispersion and India is expected to be the fastest growing market for polyurethane dispersion due to rapid urbanization and continuous growth of numerous end-use industries.
