Acrylic Resin to Dominate the Market

• Acrylic resins account for the largest share in the market owing to its excellent color and gloss retention, as well as their superior weathering and UV resistance. The demand for acrylic coatings in the decorative coatings market has increased more rapidly than the overall market, mainly due to its low VOC emissions. This favors the demand from consumers for less harmful paints and coatings.
• Acrylic paints are the most widely used decorative paints. Acrylic coatings are primarily used in the construction industry for high-end finishes on roofs, walls, floors, and other applications.
• The application of acrylic coatings leads to high surface hardness. In specific applications, such as decks and roofing, acrylic coatings provide elastomeric finishes to improve the UV resistance of the surface if employed with some fluids.
• Further, acrylic coatings have acted as a replacement for solvent-borne coatings and other low-quality and low-durability budget coatings. Water-based acrylic coatings are in high demand due to environmental concerns, such as the negative impact of VOCs on air quality in the environment. It is expected to continue to grow in the coming years. Most of the acrylic coatings used in the country for decorative applications are water-based, especially in waterproofing applications.
• The two principal forms of acrylic used are thermoplastic and thermoset. Thermoplastics acrylic resins are synthetic resins achieved by polymerization of different acrylic monomers. Thermosets are cured at elevated temperatures by reacting them with other polymers.
• Thermoset acrylics are used in product finishes for several applications. They have significant performance advantages for gloss, exterior durability, corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, solvent resistance, and hardness.
• Hence, owing to the factors mentioned above, the acrylic resin type is expected to dominate the market.
