The Global Emulsion Polymer Market size was estimated to be US$ 39.5 billion in 2019 and the expected CAGR during 2020 and 2030 is 6%.
Emulsion polymers are derived from monomers through polymerization reaction. The monomers are dispersed in an aqueous phase during polymerization, wherein phase initiator radicals are generated to form soap micelles with high density of monomer molecules, thereby forming polymers. Emulsion polymers are widely used across different applications such as paints, coatings, adhesives, inks, cosmetics, and so on.
The expansion of building & construction, automotive and personal care product manufacturing industries has contributed towards the growth of emulsion polymer market. Additionally, growth of plastic production and processing industry has resulted in increased demand for emulsion polymers across the globe.
The demand for high performance adhesives, paints & coatings, and fuel additives across automotive industry has increased significantly during past decade. The derived demand for emulsion polymers from automotive industry is expected to fuel the growth of the global emulsion polymer market. With increasing investment in development of electric vehicles, the demand for emulsion polymers is anticipated to witness prominent growth during the forecast period.
