Global High-Performance Plastic Additives market is anticipated to grow significantly through 2028 due to growing demand from the packaging industry. In 2021, China's total production of plastic products amounted to 75 million metric tonnes.
In several end-use sectors, such as the automobile, aerospace and military, packaging, chemical, building, general manufacturing, and electronics, plastic is one of the most often used materials. Due to the excellent qualities of polymers, which include strength, dependability, flexibility, and the capacity to bear pressure and heat, there is a rising need for their derivatives. This product is taking the place of more traditional materials, including wood, metals, and composites, since it is less expensive. The market is anticipated to benefit as a result. Thus, these beneficial properties of plastic additives result in demand during the forecast period.
Furthermore, the increasing demand for bio-based plastic additives propels the market's growth. Various companies and research organizations operating in the market also focus on developing such eco-friendly products. This, in turn, is expected to create huge prospects for market growth in the coming years.
Different items require various packaging materials. The market offers a wide variety of plastic materials, including translucent, food and medical-grade, opaque, porous, moisture- and heat-resistant, and more. One of the most affordable substitutes for other packaging materials like metals and alloys is plastic. Additionally, the hectic lives in metropolitan areas are contributing to the rising demand for convenience meals. The market is expected to be driven by the rising demand for plastic packaging from the food and beverage, medical, pharmaceutical, and other industries. All these factors are anticipated to increase the use of high-performance plastic additives in the upcoming years.
The performance, aesthetics, safety, construction, and utility of vehicle parts have all been changed by plastic. Plastic components are noise-reducing, flexible, lightweight, thermally insulating, non-corrosive, and enable effective space usage. Additionally, because plastic is lightweight, the vehicle's overall weight is decreased, which further lowers fuel consumption and boosts the vehicle's efficiency. The benefits of plastic over conventional materials are increased by the decreased emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) caused by lower fuel use. Vehicles may meet high safety and pollution regulations and contribute to sustainability thanks to the use of plastic.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency U.S., the transportation sector accounts for over 29% of greenhouse gas emissions, and the average fuel efficiency goal must reach 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025. Therefore, the worldwide High-Performance Plastic Additives market is anticipated to witness substantial growth during the projected period.
Plasticizers make polymer materials less viscous and more flexible. The flexibility of polymers may be altered to meet different requirements in different application areas. They make it easier to handle raw materials throughout the production process and change the frictional coefficient based on the intended use. Many plasticizers are made from poly-carboxylic acid or esters with aliphatic or branched alcohols of intermediate length. Ester plasticizers are selected based on an assessment of their performance and cost, as well as their toxicity, non-volatility, processability, and compatibility with the host material. However, flexible PVC is produced using around 90% of all plasticizers.
In April 2021, BASF launched a biobased plasticizer based on renewable raw materials with the goal of decreasing its carbon footprint. Therefore, the demand for High-Performance Plastic Additives will increase in the forecast years.
