The UV absorbers market is projected to reach USD 1,006.4 Million by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.5% between 2017 and 2022. UV absorbers are polymer additives that are used to enhance the performance, shelf life, durability, and stability of plastics, polymers, and wood components. These components are used in various applications such as building & construction, packaging, automotive, agriculture, and adhesives & sealants. The growth of the UV absorbers market is primarily driven by the increasing demand from applications such as plastics, coatings, adhesives, and personal care. UV absorbers is also a major type of UV stabilizer used in neutral or transparent applications to provide effective UV resistance for short term exposures. Plastics is considered as one of the major applications for UV absorbers in emerging as well as developed economies.
The UV absorber market can be segmented on the basis of application into plastics, coatings, adhesives, and personal care. These are also used in rubber, textiles, and printing inks, among others. The plastics segment has the largest market share and is also the fastest-growing segment. The growth of the plastics application segment is primarily driven by the rising demand for plastics from packaging, automotive, and agricultural films.
Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America are the key UV absorbers markets. The market in the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022, in terms of both value and volume. This growth is mainly attributed to the increasing use of UV absorbers in industrial hubs. The growing use of plastics in automotive, packaging, and agricultural films is further driving the demand for UV absorbers in the Asia Pacific region.
The UV absorbers market has been segmented by type into benzotriazole, benzophenone, and triazine, among others. The benzotriazole type is the largest segment of the UV absorber market, in terms of both value and volume. Benzotriazole are used in a wide range of coating applications, such as personal care, adhesives, coatings, printing, and plastics, among others, to protect polymers from UV radiation. Benzophenone is the second fastest-growing type segment of the UV absorbers market, in terms of both value and volume. This growth is mainly attributed to their extensive use in industries such as automotive, packaging, coatings, adhesives, and personal care, among others. The cost of benzophenone is lowest amongst all.
The increasing price of raw materials of some UV absorbers is expected to restrain the growth of the UV absorber market. In addition, the availability of inorganic UV absorbers, which are an alternative to organic UV absorbers, is further restraining the growth of the market. Government regulations on some UV absorbers in some applications also act as a hindrance for the UV absorbers market growth. BASF SE (Germany), Huntsman Corporation (US), Clariant AG (Switzerland), Solvay S.A. (Belgium), Everlight Chemical Industrial Co. (Taiwan), Songwon (South Korea), Adeka Corporation (Japan), Milliken Chemical (US), Addivant (US), and SABO S.p.A. (Italy) are the leading companies in the UV absorber market. These companies are expected to account for a significant market share in the near future.
