The Global Waterborne Epoxy Resin Market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.3% during the forecast period. In 2016, this market was valued at US$ 1.4 billion and is expected to reach US$ X.X billion by 2028 end. The North American region dominated the global waterborne epoxy resin market in 2016 with a share of 43%. Europe followed closely behind with a share of 36%.
Waterborne epoxy resin is an organic compound with the formula (CH₃)₂C=C(O)E(O)H. It consists of an epoxide functional group on each terminus of a central alkene moiety. Waterborne epoxy resin has many benefits such as high weatherability, ease to apply and work with. They offer good chemical resistance and UV stability. Waterborne epoxy resins are available in a wide range of formulations that can be tailored for specific applications by adding dyes, pigments or fillers, etc. This helps the industry meet its requirements without facing any constraints due to a lack of variety.
On the basis of Type, the global waterborne epoxy resin market is segmented into High Molecular Weight and Low Molecular Weight.
High molecular weight waterborne epoxy resin is a type of free-flowing, fine powder which has excellent adhesion properties. It cures very quickly within the time span of two to three hours at room temperature or one hour under heating conditions. High Molecular Weight waterborne epoxy resin has better mechanical properties, which is a result of the higher crosslinking density between polymer chains. This helps to improve physical and chemical resistance over Low Molecular weight Epoxy Resin.
Low Molecular Weight waterborne epoxy resins are a type of product used in adhesives, composites, and coatings. Low molecular weight can also refer to any class of compounds which means having a low number of molecules or atoms per molecule. The low molecular weight segment is further sub-segmented into Low viscosity, Medium to High Viscosity & Others. The benefits of Low Molecular Weight waterborne epoxy resins are that they offer good thermal stability, can bond to a variety of substrates, and have high strength.
On the basis of Application, the global waterborne epoxy resin market is segmented into Adhesives, Composites, Coatings, etc.
High-performance waterborne epoxy resins are used in adhesives applications because of their high crosslink density, resistance to heat and chemicals. They provide excellent bonding between substrates or within laminations due to the presence of strong hydrogen bonds. The use of these materials allows manufacturers to develop products with improved performance characteristics such as structural strength, durability, chemical compatibility, etc. Waterborne-based adhesive formulations have good productivity compared to solvent-borne ones that require drying time before application which causes problems under environmental conditions like humidity or rain.
Waterborne epoxy resin is used in the Composites industry for the manufacturing of sports equipment, furniture parts, and automotive components. It has superior properties such as good physical strength, elasticity that allows it to be bent without breaking or cracking; low shrinkage rate at curing time which provides dimensional stability with high resistance against water absorption. Furthermore, its ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions like thermal shock makes it suitable for use in highly demanding applications like electrical insulators and heat exchangers.
Waterborne epoxy resin is used as a protective coating on various substrates. It finds application in metal, wood, plastics, and concrete surfaces to provide protection against corrosion and abrasion. Additionally, it provides insulation for electrical equipment such as transformers and generators due to its low thermal coefficient of expansion properties. With the growing demand from these end-use industries, the waterborne epoxy resin market is anticipated to see substantial growth over the forecast period.
On the basis of Region, the global waterborne epoxy resin market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East & Africa respectively. It has been noted that the Asia Pacific region will have significant growth due to the rise in industrialization along with the economic development of countries such as India, China Singapore Indonesia, etc. Along with this huge demand for new infrastructure projects are expected to boost the composite industry which uses high volumes of Epoxy Resin including Waterborne Epoxy Resins.
For the global waterborne epoxy resin market, various driving factors such as increasing demand from end-use industries and rising demand from emerging economies are expected to drive the growth of this market. The introduction of technologically advanced products with enhanced properties is another factor that is estimated to positively impact the growth rate of this market during the forecast period.
The resin market has grown significantly over the past years owing to high demand from consumer goods industries that rely heavily on plastics for manufacturing a wide range of products including automobiles, furniture & fixtures, and electrical wires among others. Furthermore, the growing interest of consumers towards environment-friendly green adhesive formulations coupled with increasing application scope will boost this market growth during 2021 - 2028.
