By Technology, the Water-based segment is projected to dominate the market size in 2024
Acrylic resins, also recognized as acrylic elastomer coatings, are essential components in the production of high-performance paints and coatings. Derived from acrylic acid or methacrylic acid and other substances, these resins exhibit superior molecular weight and elasticity over an extensive temperature range. Acrylic resins offer significant advantages due to their inherent durability and flexibility. Additionally, they are cost-effective and water-soluble, contributing to reduced application temperatures and the provision of UV-protection to coating surfaces. During the manufacturing process, acrylic resins are blended into paint formulations to ensure the longevity of substrate membranes by preventing their deterioration and degradation.
By Resin Type, Acrylic resins segment is expected to hold the largest market size for the year 2024
Water-based paints and coatings are formulated using water-soluble resins, which are produced through the processes of polycondensation and polymerization in an organic solvent medium. These resins encompass a range of types, including polyesters, polyacrylates, alkyds, epoxy, and epoxy esters. The formulation of water-based paints includes the incorporation of alcohols, glycol ethers, and other oxygen-containing solvents, which are miscible with water. These water-based paints offer significant benefits, such as reduced volatile organic compound (VOC) content, making them a preferred choice in developed countries like the US, Germany, the UK, and France, for applications in the automotive and architecture industries. Their low VOC content contributes to improved air quality and reduced environmental impact. These paints provide protection against corrosion and enhance the aesthetics of the surfaces to which they are applied.
APAC is forecasted to hold the largest market size by region in 2024
The Asia Pacific (APAC) region is projected to dominate the global paints and coatings market over the forecast period, driven by the expansion of industries such as construction, automotive and aerospace, and defense. Key contributors to market growth in APAC include China, India, Japan, and Australia. The region's competitive edge is further bolstered by the relocation of numerous automotive manufacturing companies to APAC, attracted by the region's abundant supply of low-cost labor. Governments in countries like India are implementing initiatives such as Make in India, FDIs, funding, and loans to entice automotive manufacturers to invest and establish production facilities within their borders. Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand are among the countries offering tax incentives to these companies.
