Industry Experts published a comprehensive global market report on High Performance Plastics titled ‘ High Performance Plastics – A Global Market Overview ’. This unique report reveals that Asia-Pacific is the largest volume consumer of High Performance Plastics, forecast to be 371.5 thousand metric tons (50.1% share) in 2016, which is also expected to record the fastest 2016-2022 CAGR of 6.8% and reach a projected 550 thousand metric tons by 2022. High performance plastics are used in applications demanding higher requirements than standard and engineering plastics because of their high strength, good chemical resistance, low coefficient of friction, performance at high temperatures, high quality electrical resistance. Major demand driver for the consumption of high performance plastics is the metal and other low performance materials replacement in demanding applications such as automotive, aerospace, electronics and medical, where high temperature resistance and strength is requi...

Health issues regarding the use of synthetic ingredients, such as sweeteners, have been gaining ground, prompting food and beverage manufacturers to seek out viable alternatives. Consumption of calorie-rich artificial sweeteners has been directly linked to an increase in low-density lipoprotein or "bad" cholesterol. Starch derivatives are derived by treating starch physically, chemically or enzymatically to obtain compounds with properties different from native starches. These products find wide application in several industries for a range of functions. In the food and beverage industry, starch derivatives are used as thickeners and stabilizers, while their pharmaceutical applications include tablet binders and drug release agents. Starch derivatives also find application in the cosmetics industry as emulsifiers and as fiber additives in the animal feed sector. Some starch derivatives, such as glucose syrup and maltodextrin that are low in calorie content are being extensi...

Industry Experts has released the global market report on High Performance Polyamides. The new report titled ‘ High Performance Polyamides – A Global Market Overview ’ reveals that the Automotive sector is the largest global volume market for High Performance Polyamides, which is also anticipated to record the fastest CAGR of 4.2% between 2016 and 2022 and reach a projected 116.9 thousand metric tons by 2022 from a forecast 91.5 thousand metric tons in 2016. Bridging cost and performance gap between engineering polyamides and other high performance polymers, high performance polyamides (HPPA) are widely used in automotive, electrical & electronics and various other demanding applications. High performance polyamides withstand extreme conditions such as long term exposure to heat, chemicals, and moisture. Compared to standard polyamide technologies including PA 6 and PA 66, HPPAs can offer improved dimensional stability due lower moisture absorbsion. Mega trends in the automotiv...

Industry Experts published the new global market research report on Hydraulic Components. As per the new report ‘ Hydraulic Components – A Global Market Overview ’, the worldwide market for Hydraulic Components is projected to reach US$67.3 billion by 2022 from an estimated US$49.6 billion in 2016 growing by a compounded annual growth rate of 5.2% between 2016 and 2022. A growing impetus towards plant automation with a focus on enhancing productivity, reducing downtime and conserving energy has resulted in boosting demand for industrial hydraulic equipment designed for supporting process automation. Asian, Latin American and Middle Eastern regions have been at the forefront in plant and process automation, spurred on by the rapid pace of industrialization, development of manufacturing infrastructure and growth in GDP, a scenario ideal for robust growth in demand for hydraulics-based plant automation systems. Utilization of compact hydraulics in assembly automation provides several ta...

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...

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...

Industry Experts has added yet another market report to its High Performance Plastics’ series, Liquid Crystal Polymers. The new report ‘ Liquid Crystal Polymers – A Global Market Overview ’ reveals that the Electrical & Electronics sector dominated the global market for LCPs, which is estimated at US$525.8 million (84.2% share) in 2015, is forecast to be US$548.5 million in 2016 and is projected to reach US$750.7 million by 2022 to reflect the fastest CAGR of 5.4% between 2016 and 2022, attributed the E&E sector growth in Asian region. Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP), a high performance engineering plastic, is partially crystalline aromatic polyester based on p-hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA) and other related monomers. The chemical structure and morphology of LCPs is vastly different compared to conventional polyester polymers, due to which there are considerable differences between the two not only in physical and mechanical properties, but also in processability. LCPs have outstan...
