The newest generation of matting and soft-feeling agents for paints and varnishes is crosslinked acrylic. It offers high dispersibility in paint formulas as well as an excellent compatibility with the coated film, making it useful in both waterborne and solvent-borne coating systems.
The end result is a long-lasting matte or soft-feel coating that outperforms competing materials in terms of scratch and abrasion resistance.
The Global Cross-linked Acrylic market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
EPS 2436, a brand-new self crosslinking acrylic dispersion for use as a binder for premium wood treatments, is introduced by Engineered Polymer Solutions.
The EPS 2436 aqueous acrylic resin joins the EPS 2400 family, a group of resins that wood coating formulators can employ to create high-performance solutions for flooring, cabinets, and industrial applications. This new substance has outstanding block resistance and great transparency when dried.
In order to address performance issues that frequently arise with traditional acrylics, RayCryl 1244 is a self-crosslinking acrylic. It has strong tensile and elongation balance, great early blister resistance, and abrasive scrub resistance. The abrasion resistance and hardness are greatly increased by ambient temperature crosslinking.
In comparison to other acrylic sheet products, Plaskolite’s cross-linked continuous cast acrylic sheet has higher thermoforming, chemical, and stain resistance qualities. Spa and bath products made with thermoformed acrylic sheets reinforced with fibreglass and polyester resins are the main applications for cross-linked sheet.
The growth of the market for glacial acrylic acid has been negatively impacted by the ongoing COVID pandemic. Due to the outbreak’s sudden closure of national and international borders, operational efficiency has decreased and value chains have been disrupted, resulting in revenue loss and damage.
The shortage of raw materials as a result of disruptions in the value chain has hampered market expansion and affected the growth of end-use industries. However, the global demand for glacial acrylic acid is anticipated to rise in the coming months as economies plan to restart operations. The demand for glacial acrylic acid is anticipated to skyrocket in the not-too-distant future as post-pandemic awareness of sustainability and application base diversification grows.
The COVID outbreak will slow global investments in the water sector. The outbreak will result in a decrease in industrial water demand. In addition, the COVID outbreak is anticipated to result in revenue collection reductions on average for water and wastewater utilities worldwide.
As a result, the market for glacial acrylic acid would suffer as a result of a decrease in demand for water treatment chemicals in the water sector. However, the textile industry, which would increase the demand for glacial acrylic acid in the coming years, is anticipated to be boosted by effective measures taken by associations, such as the Industrial Fabrics Association International, supported by positive government initiatives to safeguard their frontline health care workers.
Based on application, the global glacial acrylic acid market is categorized into nappies; adult & feminine hygiene; detergents; adhesives, coatings & sealants; water treatment; and others. Glacial acrylic acid is utilized in superabsorbent polymers which are extensively used in disposable baby diapers.
Superabsorbent polymers are cross-linked polyacrylates that absorb and retain over a hundred times their own weight in liquid. Glacial acrylic acid offers notable advantages as a co-monomer in an extensive range of acrylic and vinyl acrylic polymer-based finishes, coatings, sealants, adhesives, inks, thickeners, flocculants, and lubricants, among others. Besides, GAA is used to make polymers utilized in applications ranging from medical hydrogels to superabsorbent polymers to detergents.
