Global Structural Adhesives Market Research Report: Forecast to 2023

Market Highlights

The global structural adhesives market in 2015 was USD ~18.3 billion and is expected to grow at the CAGR of 7.9% between 2016 to 2022.

The global structural adhesive market is growing considerably due to increase in usage of plastics in automotive industry to reduce weight, enhance corrosion resistance and durability in order to increase fuel efficiency along with reducing carbon emissions that will propel the structural adhesive market growth. Automobile industry requires lightweight metals that has strong bonding properties between dissimilar substrates such as steel-plastic and steel-magnesium that are used in door panels, windowglass attachment, brakes and friction plates. Thus, booming automobile industry due to increase in demand for passenger car will contribute in growth of structural adhesive market in future.

Structural adhesive is segmented into product types, technology and application. On basis of product types, structural adhesive is segmented into epoxy, acrylic, urethane, cyanoacrylate and others. Urethane structural adhesive dominates the market demand owing to its low cost and properties such as high elasticity and durability which are extensively used in applications such as automobile and construction.

These factors are expected to contribute to its demand over the forecasted year. Cyanoacrylic adhesive possess properties such as low toxicity and fast setting which will make it ideal for application in industrial machine tools, medical devices, household appliances and consumer goods. Moreover, these properties will fuel the growth of cyanoacrylic adhesive market in the coming years.

Based on technology, structural adhesive is segmented into water based and solvent based. Factors such as rapid drying rate, water resistant and semi-flexibility are favoring its usage in various bonding applications such as joint cements, wall covering, household appliances and automotive assembly. Strict environmental regulation regarding presence of VOC in solvent based adhesives has positively impacted the growth of water-based adhesives. Government concern regarding exposure to harmful chemicals and volatility in raw material prices can hamper the market in future.
