Global Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) Market Overview 2016-2022: Architectural Paints & Coatings, Industrial Paints & Coatings, Paper, Plastics and Other Applications - Research and Markets
DUBLIN, October 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) - A Global Market Overview" report to their offering.
Worldwide market for Titanium Dioxide applications analyzed in this study include Architectural Paints & Coatings, Industrial Paints & Coatings, Paper, Plastics and Other Applications.
Stringent automobile emission control norms worldwide and concerns regarding fuel efficiency have compelled manufacturers to take measures for reducing vehicle weight considerably, thereby propelling demand for lightweight vehicles. One method of reducing vehicle weight is incorporating polycarbonates as replacement for part of the steel structures used in auto manufacturing.
However, polycarbonates suffer from some drawbacks, such as low scratch resistance, which brings titanium dioxide into play. This material is used for coating polycarbonate structures that are further utilized in the auto manufacturing process.
Using polycarbonates enables in reducing the weight of a vehicle and consequently enhancing fuel efficiency. Other applications of titanium dioxide in plastics include improving color, strength and opacity.
An expansion being witnessed in the construction industry constitutes a major factor that is bolstering demand for titanium dioxide. The use of this material in paints and coatings, its largest application area, is being supported by a simultaneous surge in construction activity, which has been more evident in the developing economies of Asia-Pacific and South America.
China leads the global demand for titanium dioxide in the construction sector, with other regions, such as India, Southeast Asia, Brazil and Mexico not far behind.
The global markets for the above mentioned applications are analyzed in terms of both in metric tons and USD. Global volume consumption of Titanium Dioxide is projected to reach 7.8 million metric tons by 2022 from a forecast 6.1 million metric tons in 2016 at a CAGR of 4.1% between 2016 and 2022.
