Acrylic Adhesives Market by End-user Industries (Building & Construction, Sporting Goods, Transportation, Woodworking, Appliances, Packaging, Electrical & Electronics, and Others), Technologies (Solvent-based, Water-based, Reactive, and Other), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028

The global acrylic adhesives market size is expected to register a high CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to environmental resistance property creating a high demand in the construction industry.

Acrylic adhesives are produced with acrylic as the primary component. Acrylic may be used as the foundation material in pressure-sensitive adhesives because it is appropriate for a broad range of materials and has important qualities including excellent resistance to shear, UV radiation, moisture, solvents, chemicals, and high temperatures.

Acrylic adhesives are one of the most powerful adhesives currently available this is due to part of two major factors that is cohesion and adhesion. Adhesion is the capacity of an adhesive to bond to other surfaces, while cohesion is the ability of an adhesive to stick to itself.

Acrylic adhesives offer some of the strong cohesion and adhesion. However, acrylic adhesives have a high viscosity, which means they take long time to set and have a high melting temperature.

The Covid-19 pandemic affected the demand and supply of global acrylic adhesives market. Lockdown across the globe, supply chain disorders, and oscillating supply of raw materials forced manufacturers to shut down production leading to unfortunate decline in market growth. Launch of vaccines to combat the Covid-19 pandemic is expected to contribute to the market growth over the forecast period.
