Global specialty polymers market was valued at USD 588.2 Billion in 2020 and is anticipated to reach USD 894.14 Billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 6.17% during the forecast period, between 2021 and 2028.

Global Specialty Polymers Market Key Takeaways

Specialty polymers are utilised to improve a polymer's desirable qualities. They have unique features that set them apart from traditional polymers. Speciality polymers fall under the category of specialty chemicals and can be used in a variety of ways. Specialty polymers are bifurcate under specialty chemicals that are adoptable for good range of its applications. Specialty polymers has various properties that includes the simple processing and designing, remarkable thermal resistance, fatigue endurance and wear resistance. Conducting polymers, liquid crystal polymers, thermoplastic polymers, biodegradable polymers and electroluminescent polymers are some of the types of polymers that are used in industries such as agriculture, automotive, marine, cosmetic, construction, and Aerospace.
 

Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities:

  • The trend of specialty polymers is they are extensively in demand for manufacturing of aerospace parts, aircrafts equipment, bio-medical products, and window glass.
  • Industries such as building & construction and infrastructural development are adopting the specialty polymers to increase the strength and quality of the construction and to avoid early maintenance repair works.
  • Specialty polymers are high in properties which helps construction material to survive even in harsh and other environmental conditions. This drives the market during the forecast period.
  • Continuous changes in technologies and Lack in stability of raw material prices hinder the market growth.
  • Lightweight vehicles manufacturing is increasing as these vehicles has demand in market and not been yet used by the consumers this is projected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players.
  • Increasing specialty polymer technologies in a specialty film product of industrial applications create opportunities for the market.

Global Specialty Polymers Market Segment Insights:

The thermoplastic polymers segment to grow during the anticipated period

In terms of types, the global specialty polymers market is segmented into thermoplastic polymers, biodegradable polymers, conducting polymers, liquid crystal polymers, and electroluminescent polymers.  The thermoplastic polymers segment is further segregated into polytetrafluoroethylene, polycarbonate, and others. The conducting polymers segment is sub-segregated into intrinsically conducting polymers, extrinsically conducting polymers, doped conducting polymers. The liquid crystal polymers segment is sub-divided into polyhydroxybutarate, polyhydroxyvalarate, and others. The tthermoplastics polymer’s segment constituted a significant market share in 2020 and is projected to expand in the near future. Thermoplastics polymers are high heat resistance and flame resistance in nature. Thermoplastics polymers are used in production of various manufacturing products such as switches, sockets, as this material does not easily melt or burn. Thus, thermoplastics polymers are high in demand.

Global Specialty Polymers Market Taxonomy

The building & construction segment held substantial market share in 2020

Based on end-users, the global specialty polymers market is categorized as automotive & transportation, medical, electronics, aerospace, marine, building & construction, and others. The building & construction segment is expected to hold a significant share of the market, during the forecast period. Specialty polymers is combined with polymer to enhance its properties, this is directly proportional to the increase in strength and durability of the polymer. Rising trend in building and construction and infrastructural development leads to increase the adoption of sspecialty polymers so as to increase the durability and strength of construction.

Asia Pacific dominates the global market

In terms of regions, the global specialty polymers market is split into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific constituted a significant share of the market in 2020, due to increasing industrialization activities and increasing government spending on infrastructure. The expanding electrical and automotive industries in India and China, combined with infrastructural development, is anticipated to drive the market in the region. Additionally, economic growth as well as increasing per capita income are driving the growth of the specialty polymers market in the region. Growing economic growth experienced by Asia Pacific countries, has urge the manufacturing units of key players such as The Dow Chemical Company and BASF to expand to the region, intended for capitalize lucrative growth opportunities. The market in India is expected expand at a high CAGR, due to the “Make in India” campaign which encourages the foreign manufacturers to set up manufacturing facilities in India.
