Automotive, Aerospace and Filtration Membranes to Drive Global Sulfone Polymers Market to Reach 69K MTs by 2022

Image
Industry Experts unveiled the new comprehensive market research report on Sulfone Polymers. As per the new report titled ‘ Sulfone Polymers (PSU, PPSU & PESU) – A Global Market Overview ’, Polyethersulfone (PESU) is poised to post the fastest CAGR of 6.7% and reach a projected 31k metric tons by 2022 from an estimated 21k metric tons in 2016 while Polysulfone (PSU) is estimated the largest consumed sulfone polymers, globally, with 24k metric tons in 2016. The combination of features such as mechanically tough and rigid, transparent, resistance against hydrolysis and against acidic attacks and melt processing at temperatures of up to 400°C, coupled with ease of fabrication, has enabled sulfone polymers to be used in a wide and increasingly diversified range of applications. Major forces driving the demand for sulfone polymers across the globe include their growing usage in automotive, aerospace, medical and filtration membranes. Replacing metal to reduce weight, reduce emissions a...

Booming Construction and Automotive Industries Spur Demand for Titanium Dioxide to touch 7.8 Million MTs by 2022

Industry Experts published the new market research report on Titanium Dioxide. The new report ‘ Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) – A Global Market Overview ’ reveals that Asia-Pacific is the largest volume market for Titanium Dioxide worldwide, forecast to be 2.9 million metric tons (47% share) in 2016 and projected to reach 4 million metric tons by 2022 to reflect the fastest CAGR of 5.6% between the two years. The region is also projected to be the fastest growing Titanium Dioxide market during 2016-2022 in terms of both volume consumption and market value. Stringent automobile emission control norms worldwide and concerns regarding fuel efficiency have compelled manufacturers to take measures for reducing vehicle weight considerably, thereby propelling demand for lightweight vehicles. One method of reducing vehicle weight is incorporating polycarbonates as replacement for part of the steel structures used in auto manufacturing. However, polycarbonates suffer from some drawbacks, such as lo...
