Polyurethanes Report 2017: New Technologies and Applications Drive Global Market Growth – Research and Markets

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “Polyurethanes:
New Technologies and Applications Drive Global Market Growth”
report to their offering.

Polyurethane is the most commonly used material in various applications
for the automotive, furniture and bedding, electronics, construction and
building, and footwear industries. Major players like BASF, Dow
Chemical, Bayer and Huntsman are expected to provide revolutionary
polyurethane-based products and technologies in the near future. Dow
Chemical is expected to provide reactive PU plasticizers, which are
considered to be useful for polyurethane moisture curing adhesives used
in automotive glass bonding. BASF will boost polyurethane market through
new generation vehicles made from PU material.

Various 3D printing start-ups and intermediate players are exploring the
polyurethane market and offering innovative solutions, from artificial
organs to fabric or complex 3D models of machines. In addition,
increased adoption of biodegradable polyurethane material is also
creating buzz in the health care sector. For example, biodegradable
polyurethane elastomers are expected to contribute to cartilage tissue
engineering applications in the near future.

Moreover, significant expansion from Bayer and Dow Chemical in APAC will
help expand the scope for polyurethanes. APAC is the largest consumer
and producer of polyurethanes, and holds 36% of the global polyurethane
market. It is also the biggest exporter of polyurethanes.
