---|---|---|---|
USD 22.56 Billion | USD 38.91 Billion | 5.6% | 2024 |
The global acrylic resin market size was worth around USD 22.56 Billion in 2024 and is predicted to grow to around USD 38.91 Billion by 2034 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of roughly 5.6% between 2025 and 2034. The report analyzes the global acrylic resin market's drivers, restraints/challenges, and the effect they have on the demands during the projection period. In addition, the report explores emerging opportunities in the acrylic resin industry.
Acrylic resin is a thermoplastic or thermosetting material commonly produced from the monomers acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, and acrylate. Acrylic resins are frequently utilized in various consumer goods and industrial products because of their high transparency and durability. Polyols are acrylic resins manufactured from monomers like methyl methacrylate and are intended for usage in two-component systems. Additionally, well-known for their superior oxidative and UV resilience are acrylic resins. Both solvent-based systems and aqueous emulsions are available for acrylic resins.
The viscosities of both systems can be adjusted to meet the requirements of ballistic molding applications for prepregs made of textiles or uni tape fiber that contain little resin. Acrylic resins are widely known for having significant oxidative and UV stability. The market is anticipated to rise as more end-use sectors, including building & construction and automotive, increase their use of acrylic resins. Additionally, due to their great adherence, acrylic resins are frequently utilized as major binders in paints and coatings. However, the negative impacts of acrylic resins made with solvents and environmental laws about high volatile organic compounds (VOCs) could have a detrimental effect on the market's expansion.
Increased development and infrastructure work will increase the demand for acrylic resins
In recent years, the demand for acrylic resins has increased due to the rapid industrialization and urbanization of important nations like China and India. High-performance materials are needed in the architecture and construction sectors for protective and ornamental objectives. For use in building and construction, acrylic resin-based products, including paint, coatings, adhesives, and sealants, must exhibit extremely high levels of consistency in quality, performance, and cost-effectiveness. As a result, the building and construction industry is seeing an increase in demand for systems based on acrylic resin. The demand for better housing and infrastructure in developing nations, particularly in the Asia Pacific, is anticipated to increase the global demand for acrylic resins.
Environmental and health concerns may hamper the growth of the market
One of the main factors holding back the global acrylic resin market is the negative consequences of solvent-based systems on people's and the environment's health. Solvent-based systems pose acute health dangers to users in the form of headaches, lightheadedness, and dizziness, resulting in unconsciousness and seizures. Additionally, these systems might irritate your eyes, throat, and nose. VOCs included in paint systems are harmful to both people and the environment. VOCs are released while the paint dries or cures. The body degrades when exposed to VOCs, which can cause everything from headaches to allergic and asthmatic symptoms. These can also stress important body organs, including the heart and lungs.
Increasing demand for ecologically friendly formulations will create new opportunities for the market
The market must be sustained in the ensuing years, which requires the development of bio-based resin systems. The primary objective of producing green or bio-based paints and coating systems is environmental sustainability. Every phase of the coating's life cycle, from raw materials to resin production and formulation level, is covered by environmental sustainability. Most raw materials used in coatings are made from fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. With the discharge of greenhouse gases, misusing these resources significantly negatively impacts the environment. Comparing raw materials from plant biomass to their traditional counterparts reveals their advantageous qualities. Still employed in small volumes in coating compositions are plant-based ingredients like linseed and soya oils.
Stringent guidelines and limitations will pose a huge challenge to the growth of the market
Regulatory frameworks and limitations on the use of paints and coatings vary nationwide. Manufacturers must update and adapt their processes to comply with new standards due to variations in coating rules. Products that don't meet the specifications can't be sold in those markets. According to need and to regulate emissions from certain formulations, acrylic resins are employed in various sectors. The current laws are based on the concentration of VOCs in exhaust gases. Still, according to industrial strategy, it would be preferable in the long run for restrictions to be based on air quality standards or emission limit values represented as the mass of total emissions.
