Further key findings from the study suggest:
Global low profile additive demand was 280.9 kilo tons in 2013 and is expected to reach 406.3 kilo tons by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2014 to 2020.
PVAc was the largest used low profile additive, with global demand at 113.8 kilo tons in 2013 and is expected to be the fastest growing product segment, at an estimated CAGR of 5.8% from 2014 to 2020. PVAc is highly preferred as it is compatible with all major unsaturated polyester resins and provides superior surface finish with zero shrinkage.
Asia Pacific was the largest regional consumer of LPA, accounting for 59.2% of global demand in 2013. China is expected to be a key market for LPA owing to its status as the largest automotive manufacturer in the world along with being the fastest growing infrastructural economy.
Key market participants include Ashland Inc, CCP Composites, Reichhold Chemicals Inc, Arkema, Wacker AG, Cray Valley Hydrocarbon Specialty Chemicals, Momentive specialty Chemicals Inc, Polyone Corporation, Lucite International and FRP Services & Company.
