Economic Growth Leading to Rising Consumption of Hot melt Adhesives

Factors such as the surging consumer expenditure and the expanding packaging industry will help the hot melt adhesives market to display a CAGR of 6.1% during the forecast period (2020–2030). According to P&S Intelligence, the market generated a revenue of $7,717.0 million in 2019, and it is expected to reach $12,761.3 million by 2030. Hot melt adhesives are widely used in the electronics, construction, packaging, and automotive industries, due to their ease of application, non-volatile organic compound (VOC) emitting, and fast setting time properties.

The flourishing packaging industry, primarily on account of the burgeoning demand for packaged food and drinks and the growing e-commerce sector, is one of the key contributors to the market growth, worldwide. Since packaged products require both rigid and flexible packaging, this industry uses hot melt adhesives in abundance because of their easy application and fast setting time features. With the increasing penetration of e-commerce platforms, owing to the rapid internet and smartphone adoption, the demand for such adhesives is escalating rapidly.

In recent years, the rising shift of automobile manufacturers toward advanced assembly techniques from conventional ones has become a major trend in the hot melt adhesives market. The conventional assembly techniques in the automobile industry involve the usage of mechanical welds or fastener; whereas, the advanced techniques use hot melt adhesives. Nowadays, automakers have started using such adhesives in abundance, as these offer flexibility during the production process. Moreover, the hot melt adhesives are used in the automobile industry to join various types of substrates used in vehicles. 

The resin type segment of the hot melt adhesives market categories are polyester, polyamide (PA), polyurethane (PU), metallocene polyolefin (MPO), amorphous polyalphaolefin (APAO), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), and styrenic block copolymer (SBC). In 2019, the EVA category generated the highest revenue, due to the high-volume consumption of EVA hot melt adhesives in the furniture, packaging, automotive, and electronics industries, owing to their ability to work in a wide temperature range. Moreover, the quick setting time and easy applicability of such adhesives will also augment their demand in the coming years.

Globally, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) hot melt adhesives market generated the highest revenue in 2019, due to the presence of vast manufacturing hubs in China, India, Japan, and South Korea. Additionally, the regional market is also expected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period. This will be due to the booming population and escalating per capita income in APAC countries. Owing to these reasons, the consumption of automobiles, electronics, and packaged goods will surge rapidly, which will create a huge demand for hot melt adhesives, in the region. 

Thus, the booming packaging sector and mounting public spending in developing countries will supplement the market growth in the forecast years.

Why Oxygen-Free Copper Market Opportunities Galore in APAC?

Image
 The major factors in the global oxygen-free copper market are skyrocketing demand for oxygen-free copper wires in the electronics & electrical industry and electric vehicles (EVs). This surging demand is owing to their ease of welding, renowned creep resistance, high impact strength, high thermal and electrical conductivity, and high ductility. The market is predicted to grow significantly in the coming years. The outbreak of COVID-19 had disrupted the entire circular economy, significantly reducing this market’s sales because of the ruptured logistical network, shutdown of electronic & electrical product factories, and reduced EV production. Within the grade system, the oxygen-free copper market can be bifurcated into oxygen-free electronic and oxygen-free categories. The latter bifurcation generated higher revenue in the market in the past, not only in terms of value but also in terms of volume. The category will continue to exhibit this trend in the coming years as well. T

Sales of Hexamine Set to Shoot Up in Coming Years

Image
The mushrooming usage of hexamine in several industries such as rubber, pharmaceutical, explosives, and fuels is a major factor responsible for its soaring sales across the world. Moreover, the booming population in several countries is pushing up the demand for medical and pharmaceutical products. This is due to the fact that the surging population is causing poverty, which is, in turn, propelling the incidence of various diseases such as neurological disorders and urinary tract infections. Apart from the aforementioned factors, the rising requirement for hexamine in the plastic industry is also contributing toward the surging sales of the material throughout the world. It is used in plastic synthesis and heavily required in the packaging and construction industries, on account of these industries being prominent end users of plastics. With the surging population level, the number of construction and infrastructural development projects is increasing rapidly in many countries around t
