Coalescing Agent (Hydrophilic, Hydrophobic) Market - Global Gorecast to 2023

Dublin, Feb. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Coalescing Agent Market by Type (Hydrophilic, Hydrophobic), Application (Paints & Coatings, Adhesive & Sealants, Inks, Personal Care Ingredients), and Region (APAC, North America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, South America)- Global forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global coalescing agent market size is projected to reach USD 1,315.8 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 4.9% between 2018 and 2023.

In 2017, APAC accounted for the largest share of 46.0%, in terms of value, of the coalescing agent market. The large market size of the region is attributed to the high demand from automotive & transportation and industrial sectors in China, Japan, and India, among others. Increasing demand from emerging economies, increasing demand for environmentally-friendly coalescent agents, and growing demand for high-performance coatings are creating growth opportunities for the market players. However, stringent environmental regulations and the high cost of coalescing agents act as a restraint to the growth of the coalescing agent market.

The coalescing agents market is segmented on the basis of the type as hydrophilic and hydrophobic. The hydrophilic segment led the overall coalescing agents market, accounting for a share of 91.9% of the overall market, in terms of value, in 2017. The demand for the hydrophilic coalescing agent is driven by the large usage in applications such as paints & coatings and adhesive & sealants in construction, oil & gas, industrial, and automotive & transportation industries. Increasing demand for low water soluble and green coalescent also drive the hydrophilic coalescing agent market.

The coalescing agent market is segmented on the basis of application as paints & coatings, inks, personal care ingredients, adhesive & sealants, and others. The growth in the paints & coatings sector plays a key role in driving the demand of coalescing agent. The increased consumption of coalescing agent in paints & coatings application is due to its ability to assist in the formation of a smooth and uniform film with improved physical properties such as abrasion resistance, scrub resistance, and appearance. Coalescing agents are used in applications such as interior & exterior paints, wood coatings, coil coatings, automotive refinish, automotive paints, protective coatings, industrial coatings, woodworking, and others.
