Emulsion Coatings Market Segment Analysis – By Form
Powder segment held the largest share of 54% in the emulsion coatings market in the year 2020. Powdered emulsion coatings provides an aqueous (solvent-free) and conductive emulsion for surface treatment of low-conductivity surfaces. It adheres well to the surface of the object. This kind of conductive emulsion provides various advantages such as creating a uniformly conductive surface for evenly attracting powder particles and a smooth and hard film highly resistant to scratches. Powder emulsion coatings can be used on various surfaces ranging from wood to plastic and thus making it a preferred form of emulsion coatings in many applications across various end-use industries.
Emulsion Coatings Market Segment Analysis – By Application
Interior coatings segment held the largest share of 38% in the emulsion coatings market in the year 2020. Emulsion coatings are widely used in interior wall coatings as they are ideal for ceilings and walls owing to their ease in application. Emulsion coatings in interior wall painting provide various advantages such as humid resistance, which will be ideal for use in kitchens and restrooms, where there are chances of steaming. Emulsion provides abrasion resistance, which does not let the painting to crack or fade soon. The global interior architecture coatings market was valued at US $39.8 billion in the year 2018. This is one of the factors driving the growth of emulsion coatings in the interior coatings market.
Emulsion Coatings Market Segment Analysis – By End-Use Industry
Building and Construction segment held the largest share of 40% in the emulsion coatings market in the year 2020. Emulsion coatings are widely used in the paints, coatings and primers used for painting the interior and exterior walls of building. Emulsion coatings offers various advantages such as abrasion resistance, humidity resistance, protection from heat and corrosion resistance which makes eventually increases the need for emulsion coatings in the building and construction industry. The construction industry is estimated to reach US$ 8 trillion by 2025, which is a progressive sign for the emulsion coatings market, as it is widely used for paintings and coatings in the building and construction sector.
Emulsion Coatings Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
Asia-Pacific region held the largest share of 43% in the emulsion coatings market in the year 2020. The increase in the growth of building and construction industry in countries like India, China, Japan and South Korea is driving the demand for emulsion coatings market. In 2020, the market size of the Indian painting market reached $7.75 billion (INR 570 billion). The increase in the size of building and construction sector is leading to the increase in demand for paintings and coatings which is further increasing the demand for emulsion coatings, as they possess superior qualities which helps sustain the coatings life and helps in adding value to the product.
Emulsion Coatings Market Drivers
Growth in the electronics industry
The growth in the electronics industry is driving the need for emulsion coatings as they are extensively used in the manufacture of electronic products. The emulsion coatings are used in the motherboards, chips and integrated circuit for various needs such as insulation, additional coating, increased strength and others. According to Equipment Market Data Subscription (EMDS)’s report, the North American market of the semiconductor equipment manufacturing industry was valued at US $ 3.04 billion as at January 2021 (three months average basis). This is set to increase the demand of emulsion coatings industry, as they are widely used in semi-conductor components.
One of the top quality water based coatings
It is produced with tiny polymers which makes it easier for it to disperse in water and form an emulsion, thereby facilitating a smooth surface stabilization. The waterborne poly(vinyl acetate-ethylene) (PVAc) acts as a good agent which helps in dispersions stabilized with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) which is used in wood adhesive. This provides various advantages such as easy maintenance, less effort for cleaning, excellent adhesion and better colour retention. Water-based coatings have better adaptability which lets the coating be directly sprayed in any environment, without any compensation in the adhesion. It is also considered as a green product; which is eco-friendly and does not release any toxic substance in the air, thus making it a less harmful product.
Emulsion Coatings Market Challenges
Emission of high volatile organic compounds
The process of manufacture of polymer emulsion releases high Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) in the surroundings which is highly dangerous for the environment. The emission of volatile organic compounds causes several harmful health-related effects on the workers and also to the end-users. This leads to the trouble of chronic health issues like respiratory problems. Therefore governments of many countries have laid regulatory rules on the manufacture of emulsion coatings and related products. In most countries, the limit set for the content of such volatile organic compounds, like lead is 90 parts per million (ppm) total lead content, based on the weight of the total non-volatile content of the paint. Any amount beyond the specified limit will attract legal actions. This is one of the biggest challenge for the emulsion coatings market.
Emulsion Coatings Market Industry Outlook
Acquisitions and mergers, collaborations, partnerships, expansion, new product launches and investments, are some of the key strategies adopted by players in the Emulsion Coatings Market. Major players in the Emulsion Coatings Market are Celanese Corporation, DIC Corporation, Synthomer plc, Asahi Kasei Corporation, Arkema Group, Trinseo, The Lubrizol Corporation, Wacker Chemie AG, Dow Chemical Company and NIPSEA GROUamong others.
Acquisitions/Technology Launches
In April 21, 2020, Vinneva launched a new product line for polymer-modified bitumen emulsions. The polymers ensure that coatings adhere exceptionally well to building fabric for a long time. They moreover reinforce the barrier effect against water pressing in on a basement wall or other building parts.
Key Takeaways
Asia-Pacific market held the largest share in the emulsion coatings market due to the increase in demand for conductive inks and pastes for use in electronic devices in countries like India, China, Japan and South-Korea.
