Plastic Additives Market Overview

Plastic additives are chemicals that are used to polymerize, process, or aid achieve desirable properties in the final use of plastics. Plastic additives provide increased chemical, water, and scratch resistance, lower coefficient of friction, enhanced gloss, improved water repellency, suppression of shark-skin, and reduced surface roughness, to name a few advantages. Plastic additives are also used to increase polymer flow, making them easier to process. Internal lubricants allow materials to flow more freely by reducing heat dissipation and viscosity. Plastic additives are more successful than other additives at preventing microbiological deterioration of plastic materials that are prone to staining, odour, discoloration, and aesthetic loss. These advantages of plastic additives over other additives are driving the growth of the plastic additives market. Plastic additives are more effective on materials that have electrical insulating qualities as well as mechanical properties. Global Plastic Additives Market accounted for US$ 50.29 billion in 2020 and is estimated to be US$ 85.70 billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 5.52%.

Plastic Additives Market Dynamics

Plastic additives are used in a variety of industries

Plastic additives are used in a variety of industries, including packaging, construction, automotive, consumer products, textile, agricultural, and medicine. Growth in the market size of plastic additives is predicted to be primarily driven by a recovery in these main market sectors, as well as a rising demand for polymer additives for applications in these segments. Plastics, particularly engineering plastics, outperform traditional materials such as metals, glass, paper, and ceramics in terms of mechanical and electrical characteristics, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance. Plastic is being used to replace these traditional materials due to continuous innovation and the requirement for lighter materials in a variety of applications.

Several new restrictions and potential limitations on the use of petroleum-based polymers are projected to impact plastic additive sales. Several scientific investigations have supported limitations on various types of plastic additives, such as flame retardants and plasticizers. In the United States and Europe, regulatory rules restrict the use of high-value flame retardants, such as brominated and chlorinated flame retardants. These might hamper the market of plastic additives during the forecast year.
