Plastic additives are substances incorporated into polymers and plastics to alter, enhance, and influence their properties and performance. The main purpose of their inclusion is to improve the plastics’ durability, flexibility, and color or to imbue them with characteristics such as anti-static, flame-resistance, or UV protection. In a broader sense, these additives facilitate the transformation of polymer materials into products of exceptional quality, capable of meeting diverse consumer and industrial needs. The increasing consumer demand for sustainable and convenient packaging solutions and the surge in the automotive sector for lightweight and durable vehicles has emerged as significant growth contributor. However, environmental concerns regarding the use of plastics and their non-degradability are significant limiting factors. Nevertheless, developing sustainable solutions, including biodegradable and recyclable plastic products, is expected to create substantial opportunities for the growth of plastic additives.
