Market Insights
The global rheology modifiers market accounted for US$ 5,039.26 Mn in 2017 and expected to reach US$ 7,296.72 Mn by 2026, expanding at a CAGR of 4.3% from 2018 to 2026. Rheology modifiers are present in most of the products and commonly referred as viscosifiers or thickeners. These additives finds application in most of the industries including paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, pharmaceuticals, personal care & cosmetics, construction, agriculture, ceramics, oil & gas, rubber & plastics, textiles, pulp & paper, electronic, food & beverage, textile among others. Rheology modifiers comes from both organic and inorganic sources. Naturally occurring polymers are generally water soluble and comprised of amino acid or polysaccharide building blocks. Common examples of organic modifiers are cellulose, starch, egg yolk, alginate, arrowroot, agar, gelatin, carageenan, guar gum, collagen, pectin and xanthan gum. On the other hand, inorganic modifiers grouped into three general classes hydrophobically modified, ethoxylated urethane resins (HEUR’s) hydrophobically modified alkali-swellable emulsions (HASE’s) and alkali-swellable emulsions (ASE’s).
In the base year 2017, organic rheology modifiers held higher market share as compared to inorganic rheology modifiers with more than 65% of market share by value. On the flip side inorganic rheology modifiers expected to witness higher CAGR from 2018 to 2026 owing to increasing demand from end-use industries such as paints & coatings, ceramics, personal care & cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and oil & gas among others.
Based on end-use industries global rheology modifiers is segmented into paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, pharmaceuticals, personal care & cosmetics, construction and others (agriculture, ceramics, oil & gas, rubber & plastics, textiles, pulp & paper, electronic, food & beverage, textile ,etc.).
