Flame Retardant Masterbatch Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Type (Halogenated, Non-halogenated), By End-Use (Construction, Automobile, Textiles, Electronics, Aerospace, Packaging, Paints & Coatings, Others) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032
KEY INDUSTRY INSIGHTS
Flame retardants are the chemicals that are added to fabrics, plastics, composites, and other various materials to reduce the threat of catching flames and smoke by increasing the resistance to ignition temperature. Masterbatches are the unprocessed material of plastics that contains high coloring pigments and additives. In plastic industry, various additives are added in the plastic during the masterbatch formulation and further are integrated in the different types of plastics like polyolefins, polycarbonates, polyesters, and polyamides as additives. Flame retardant additives are type of masterbatches designed and formulated to prevent or reduce the chances of ignition in highly flammable objects like plastics and textiles.
The robust growth in demand for plastics from automotive industry is expected to drive the market. Technological advancements in the involvement of plastics and polymers instead of metals to cut down the total weight of the vehicle and make it light weight, is creating a positive impact on the market growth. Moreover, the increasing risks of fire related accidents are leading to adoption of flame retardants which further is expected to foster the market growth.
Key Market Driver -
Robust growth of automotive industry.
Key Market Restraint -
Stringent rules imposed by government.
