Specialty Polymer Market Insights

Lucintel forecast that specialty elastomers will remain the largest type segment over the forecast period because they have exceptional quality of returning to their original size and shape after being greatly stretched, and they are found naturally as it is made up of natural rubber. It also ensures high tensile and tear strength and exceptional fatigue resistance.
Within this market, automotive segment is anticipated to record the highest growth over the forecast period due to rise in demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient cars, which has led to increased use of these polymers in automotive parts to replace heavy metals. Thus, the demand for specialty polymer materials is increasing with rising sales of vehicles globally
APAC is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period due to the expansion of construction, automotive and electrical industries along with increasing investment of Government on infrastructural development in countries like China and India.
