San Francisco, 4 January 2019: The Report Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) Market Analysis By Product (Extruded Sheets, Pellets,
And Acrylic Beads), By End-Use (Automotive, Construction, Electronics, Signs
& Displays), Competitive Landscape, And Segment Forecasts 2018 - 2025
According to a report by Grand
View Research, Inc., global polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) market is
anticipated to value USD 8.16 billion by 2025. Growing requirement for
aesthetic advertising options in retail sector is anticipated to propel demand
for polymethyl methacrylate over the forecast period (2014 to 2025). PMMA is
likely to offer characteristics such as durability, thermal and chemical resistance,
superior abrasion resistance, and low smoke emission.
Rising demand for light-weight
materials in manufacturing companies can propel market growth. PMMA is likely
to be 40% lighter than glass and can offer transparency, rigidity, and
toughness. This, in turn, can augment growth of market in the forthcoming
years. Stringent regulations pertaining to harmful emissions and manufacturing
are expected to drive market expansion. PMMA is estimated to emit less smoke as
compared to other products. Advent of advanced manufacturing techniques such as
suspension polymerization, emulsion polymerization, and bulk polymerization can
stimulate market growth. Rising R&D investments to develop advanced
products matching consumer demand can boost market expansion in the forthcoming
years.
Volatility in prices of raw
materials can hamper growth of market over the forecast period. However, growing
adoption of bio-based raw materials over petroleum derivatives attributed to
less consumption of energy can spur market growth. Rising investments towards
development of renewable raw materials can create lucrative opportunities for
new market entrants.
