Based on the report, the market is segmented into resin type, Acrylic, Polyester, Alkyd, Epoxy, Polyurethane, PTFE, PVDF, and PVDC. Among them the acrylic resin dominates the market in 2022. Acrylic resin-based waterborne coatings have relatively fast drying times compared to other resin types, allowing for quicker production processes and reduced downtime. Additionally, they have low odor, making them more user-friendly and suitable for indoor applications where odor can be a concern. Acrylic resin is well-suited for waterborne formulations due to its ability to disperse and stabilize in water. It can be easily emulsified, resulting in stable and homogeneous water-based coatings. This compatibility with waterborne systems contributes to its dominance in the waterborne coatings market, as water-based coatings are increasingly preferred for their lower VOC content and environmental benefits. Acrylic resin has excellent film-forming properties, allowing it to create a durable and protective coating. It forms a tough and flexible film that adheres well to a variety of substrates, including metals, plastics, concrete, and wood. The strong adhesion properties of acrylic resin enhance the overall performance and longevity of the coating. The Alkyd resin is expected to grow with highest CAGR of the market during the forecast period.
