The global plastic antioxidants market size reached US$ 4.1 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 6.7 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4% during 2024-2032.

Plastic antioxidants help protect materials against thermal and light-assisted oxidation reactions that are caused by ultraviolet (UV) light exposure during high-temperature processing operations. They are utilized in a wide range of applications to enhance the appearance and maintain strength, stiffness, and flexibility of products while prolonging their service life. Nowadays, several manufacturers are offering multifunctional variants that have special molecular designs and combine primary and secondary functions in one compound.

Plastic Antioxidants Market Trends:

Polymers change over time when exposed to oxygen, light, radiation, excessive heat, and corrosive environments. This can lead to loss of impact strength, elongation, surface cracks, discoloration, and poor service life of products. As a result, plastic antioxidants are widely utilized in various end use industries to inhibit oxidative degradation and maintain the integrity of products during long-term storage. Apart from this, plastic antioxidants are extensively utilized in the manufacturing of a wide range of polymer-based interior and exterior components of vehicles, such as bumpers, dashboards, steering wheels, and switches. In addition to this, stringent emission standards implemented by governing agencies of several countries are encouraging original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to adopt plastic antioxidants in modern vehicles. Plastic antioxidants assist in minimizing the risk of excessive volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions caused by polymer degradation. Besides this, the expanding use of medical equipment worldwide on account of the growing prevalence of acute and chronic diseases and the rising geriatric population is contributing to the market growth. Furthermore, the emerging trend of sports accessories and electronic items, such as cable insulation and circuit boards, is driving the applications of plastic antioxidants in the telecommunications, electronics, and sports industries across the globe.
