Low profile additives are compounds that are added in small amounts to polymers such as polyester, epoxy and polyurethane resins in order to reduce shrinkage and warp that occurs during curing or hardening. They help improve the aesthetic and physical properties of the final products that are manufactured using these resins. Some key properties enhanced include smoothness and thickness uniformity of finished surfaces. End use industries such as transportation, construction and wind energy employ low profile additives in their manufacturing processes to produce high quality parts and composites with enhanced strength, bonding and minimal defects. Low profile additives are gaining importance in the automotive and construction industries due to their excellent properties such as reduced parts war page and excellent flow during molding. They help in enhancing the aesthetic appeal and functional performance of plastics used in many exterior and interior applications. Rising demand for lightweight and cost-effective materials from end-use industries is propelling the demand for low profile additives.

Market Dynamics:

The global low profile additives market is driven by growing demand from the transportation industry. As manufacturers focus on lightweighting vehicles, composites are being increasingly used to manufacture various vehicle components. Low profile additives play a crucial role in optimizing the cosmetic and mechanical performance of composites. Their adoption helps automakers achieve dimensional stability and surface flatness during manufacturing. Stringent environmental regulations regarding vehicle emissions are also propelling the use of engineered composites. However, stringent volatility standards pose a challenge for market players. Industry players are exploring bio-based and renewable resource-based low profile additives to capitalize on the opportunity arising from safe and sustainable chemistry.
