Product Analysis

Coating additives are added to paints and coatings to augment their quality and performance. Additives improve the dispersion of solids, wetting, foam-reduction, anti-catering, gloss control, anti-chipping, UV protection, etc., of coatings. Coating additives can be of various types such as acrylics, urethanes, fluoropolymers, and metallics, among others.

Acrylic additives are the leading product type, followed by urethanes and metallic additives. Coating additives help the surfaces to deal with higher temperatures, abrasion, moisture, biocides, and chemical resistance. Based on formulations, the market for coating additives is divided into water-borne, solvent-borne, and powder-based coatings.

Solvent-borne coatings were the leading coating additives formulations in the past few years. However, due to high VOC content and environmental concerns, the popularity of water-borne coating additives formulations has increased tremendously in the recent past and they are anticipated to grow substantially in the near future owing to their lower VOC content.

The main driver for coating additives has been the huge infrastructure boom in the past decade in the building & construction industry and this demand stems from the ever-increasing need for better quality surfaces. Residential and commercial buildings are the leading end-users for coatings additives and are likely to gain further market share in the near future owing to increased construction activities in Asia Pacific and RoW.

Another major driver for the coating additives market is the automotive industry. Coating additives are used in the automotive industry to enhance surface quality and protect them from abrasion, UV rays, other weathering effects, and chemicals. Other end-users for coatings additives include wood & furniture, industrial engineering, and aviation, among others.

In the wood and furniture industry, coating additives are used to preserve the wood surfaces from microbial growth and moisture content. Increasing demand for multifunctional coating additives is anticipated to be the major opportunity for the coatings additives market. However, various environmental regulations associated with VOC content in formulation technologies can act as a major restraint for the market.

In terms of formulation used, water-borne additives exhibited the highest consumption in the past few years and are likely to grow more in the coming years. Water-borne formulations have lower VOC content than other coatings additives formulations and are preferred in developed countries where there are stringent environmental regulations regarding the paints and coatings industry.

Larger quantities of coatings additives are required in the case of water-borne formulations over other types to achieve higher performance. Powder-based formulations are also likely to gain more market share in the near future owing to their better performance than solvent-borne formulations.
