Thermoplastic Polyurethane Industry: Analysis by Product Types and Applications, Industry Top Players, Regions and Market Overview
Overview:
Dynamic features of
components are often much acknowledged in end-user industries. Thermoplastic
polyurethane (TPU) is a product that offers a vast range of application owing
to its features that satisfies several needs generated by the end-user sectors.
Among its features, elasticity, transparency, resistance to oil, grease, and
abrasion have made it the choicest material for many industries. The automotive
industry is one of them that promotes it the most.
Due to thermoplastic polyurethane’s wide application
in this industry, and the said end-user industry booming at a rapid pace,
thermoplastic polyurethanes can reach a valuation of USD 2.96 billion during
the forecast period (2016-2023). Market Research Future (MRFR) reveals, in the
process, the global thermoplastic polyurethanes market can achieve an
impressive CAGR of 6.53%.
On
the flip side, the market is set for a daunting task where it has to go
head-to-head with bio-based alternatives. Environmental concerns can pose as a
major hurdle for the market and leave a detrimental impact on the market. At
the same time, the fluctuating price of the raw materials can also be seen as a
rein on the market’s expected growth.
Industry Trend:
BASF
has recently announced a new TPU technology where it aggravates the
high-performance shoe shank production and makes the entire procedure cost-efficient.
Furthermore, it adds excellent mechanical properties such as UV resistance. The
production technology can work in tandem with automation.
Callaway,
a market giant in golf ball production, is taking its production technology a
notch higher by blending TPU with thermoset polyurethane to have a cover for
the golf balls which, in turn, would increase its performance.
