High performance Adhesives Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast 2018-2026

High performance Adhesives Market - Overview

High-performance adhesives possess superior properties such as high tensile strength, high temperature resistance, low curing time, high elasticity, high durability, and excellent moisture resistance. These adhesives are commonly utilized in critical and complex applications, wherein enhanced performance of adhesives is required. Leading manufacturers of adhesives as well as research institutions are making significant investments to develop durable, low-cost high-performance adhesives and to improve their properties for critical and complex applications in industries such as transportation and medical. The medical segment of the high-performance adhesives market is projected to witness rapid growth during the forecast period. Advancements in medical device assembly technologies and requirements for superior performance of adhesives in industries such as aerospace are anticipated to fuel the global high-performance adhesives market during the forecast period.

Based on product, the global high-performance adhesives market has been segmented into epoxy, silicone, polyurethane, and acrylic. Epoxy is the most widely used type of high-performance adhesives. The epoxy segment is likely to dominate the global high-performance adhesives market during the forecast period, due to high temperature resistance of epoxy adhesives and their compatibility with dissimilar substrates used in a wide range of end-use industries. Epoxy adhesives are widely being replaced by water-based, acrylic high-performance adhesives that contain a small amount of VOCs. Acrylic is estimated to be the rapidly expanding segment during the forecast period.

In terms of formulation technology used, the global high-performance adhesives market can be segmented into solvent-based, water-based, hot melt, and UV-curable. The solvent-based segment accounts for a major share of the market. However, the demand for solvent-based adhesives is gradually decreasing, due to harmful effects of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contained in them. Awareness about VOCs has led to adoption of water-based high-performance adhesives that contain VOCs in traces. The water-based segment is expected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period.

Based on region, the global high-performance adhesives market can be classified into: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa, and Latin America. Asia Pacific is estimated to be the leading market for high-performance adhesives in the next few years. The market in Asia Pacific is estimated to expand rapidly during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to increase in the purchasing power of people in countries such as China and India, which leads to growing adoption of high end-products that use high-performance adhesives. Middle East & Africa and Latin America are also estimated to witness high increase in the demand for high-performance adhesives. The market for high-performance adhesives in Europe is projected to expand at a low rate during the forecast period, as it is an already mature market. Manufacturers in developed regions have limited presence in Middle East & Africa and Latin America. These regions are projected to create lucrative opportunities for high-performance adhesives manufacturers in the next few years. Strengthening distribution channels in these regions is anticipated to help these companies expand their footprint in the near future.
