Global Opaque Polymers Market Forecast to 2022 – Fluctuation in the Prices of Raw Materials – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The "Opaque
Polymers Market by Type, Application, and Region – Global Forecast to
2022" report has been added to Research and Markets'
offering.

The opaque polymers market is estimated to be USD 1.70 billion in
2017 and is projected to reach USD 2.82 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of
10.7%.

Opaque polymers are used in various applications such as paints &
coatings, personal care, and detergents. The growth of the opaque
polymers market is primarily driven by the increased demand for
architectural paints in the construction industry. Opaque polymers
possess excellent hiding and color retention properties due to which
these polymers are widely used by paints & coatings manufacturers.

The demand for opaque polymers is increasing in the architectural paints
segment, owing to their affordable costs. However, lower performance of
opaque polymers as compared to TiO2 is acting as a restraint to the
growth of the opaque polymers market.

Drivers

• Increasing Prices of TIO2
• Growing Demand in Construction Industry for Architectural Paints

Restraints

• Lower Hiding Performance Than TIO2

Opportunities

• Improvement in the Performance Efficiency to Make Them Suitable for
  Industrial Paint Formulations

Challenges

• Fluctuation in the Prices of Raw Materials

The opaque polymers market in the Asia Pacific region is projected to
grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period, both in terms of
value and volume.

China and India are key markets for opaque polymers in the Asia Pacific
region. The growth of the opaque polymers market in this region can be
attributed to the increased demand for opaque polymers in the paints &
coatings application.
