Asia Pacific dominated the thermosets market share with more than 36%, in 2020. Over the next decade, Asia Pacific is expected to grow as the main market for thermoset composites. Based on its demand from various end-use industries such as manufacturing, vehicles and chemicals, Asia Pacific has become the leading area for consuming thermosets. Owing to the growth of the automotive industry coupled with growing disposable income, China and India are expected to see substantial gains over the projected period. According to IBEF, in India passenger vehicle sales was at 3,10,294 units in October 2020, compared with 2,71,737 units in October 2019, registering a 14.19% growth. Also, the Indian Government expects automobile sector to attract US$ 8 to US$10 billion in local and foreign investments by 2023. In addition, demand can be powered by continued developments in the shipping, wind power, and construction and infrastructure sectors. It will estimate that industrialization and rapid economic change would fuel business demand for thermosets.

Thermosets Market Drivers

Increasing Demand of Thermosets

Through preventing the deposition of unrecyclable polymers in landfills and unregulated areas, understanding of environmental conservation has been growing. To promote the production of recyclable thermosets, tax incentives and legislation have been implemented. In response, some novel polymers that not only have high-performance features in line with traditional thermosets, but are also recyclable have been developed by researchers. The global market for recyclable thermosets has been significantly improved by favorable research activities. The changing regulatory scenario and the increasing customer perception of the importance of decreasing the use of fossil fuels are both critical for the growth of the industry and will drive the market significantly over the forecast span of the study.

Increase in Automotive Production

In the automotive industry, thermosets curing agents or crosslinking agents (also called hardeners) are widely used for the production of automotive components such as pump parts, pulleys, pistons, carbon brush holders, electrical endplates, wheels, panels, vacuum pumps, water pump housings, pedals, and electrical encapsulation. Thermoset composites can be 30% -40% lighter than aluminum and provide very high heat tolerance and resistance to fatigue, which is expected to increase thermoset demand during the forecast period. The Chinese government expects the production of automobiles to reach 35 million units by 2025, according to the International Trade Administration (ITA). In 2017, the Australian market sold 1.2 million new passenger cars, SUVs, and commercial vehicles, an increase of 0.9 % from 2016. According to International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (IOMVM), the production of light commercial vehicles has also increased in the APAC region by 10.2 % in 2018. Light commercial vehicle production has increased from 2,249,348 in 2018 to 2,254,153 in 2019, an increase of 0.2 % in Europe. The increasing production of automotive will therefore require more thermosets, which will act as a driver for the market for thermosets.
