The key player has estimated that the total market for Engineering Plastics Compounds would be around $x million in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of x% during the forecast period 2021-2031. An excellent alternative to metal, glass or even ceramics, Engineering plastic compounds are being increasingly finding place in most demanding applications owing to their mechanical strength, heat resistance, and chemical attack resistance properties. They have found unique potential in applications such as automotive and industrial, renewable energy, medical technology and transport. Engineering plastic compounds encompasses a number of plastics under its umbrella, among which polyamide, polycarbonate, Styrenics (ABS & SAN), Poly butylene Terephthalate (PBT), Polyoxymethylene (POM), Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) are the most prominent one’s.

What are the Challenges in the Global Engineering Plastic Compounds Market?
Polycarbonate plastics are difficult to recycle mechanically due to the low quality of the recovered material, while many chemical recycling processes use harsh reagents or conditions. Since polycarbonate is made up of petroleum and is non-biodegradable its landfills have proven to be a nightmare. It is of concern that the accidental dumping of plastics into oceans have resulted in mammals and birds starving to death and fish ingesting toxins that may make them dangerous to eat. Annually, large amounts of CDs are discarded worldwide. The non-biodegradable polycarbonate results in serious pollution issues. Although there are techniques being devised to recycle CDs, these are not very suitable and innovative methods. Further to this, recycling of plastic compounds has proven to be a far biggest challenge as it involves different combinations of dyes, fillers, and additive added to the polymers, which leads possess different melting points and other properties.
Regional Analysis
Asia Pacific region is predicted to hold the largest share in the engineering plastics compound market owing to rapidly growing economies such as China and India, and ASEAN countries including Malaysia and Thailand. The major factor driving their growth is the increasing investments due to the high consumption of engineering plastic compounds. Owing to the increase in disposable income, the consumer buying pattern has changed; it has been influenced by globalization and westernization. These countries are also attracting attention of foreign investors to set up manufacturing plants and generate employment and revenue in the countries. This has created many opportunities for global manufacturers to set up their plants in the emerging economies.
