DALLAS, September 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

The global superplasticizers market is segmented into five types: Sulfonated naphthalene formaldehydes (SNF), sulfonated melamine formaldehydes (SMF), modified lignosulfonates (MLS), polycarboxylic acids (PC), and others. Each type of superplasticizer has its own properties and applications. These individual superplasticizers have application specific demands that are differentiated by placement, cost, and efficiency. Naphthalene superplasticizers are useful in ready-mix concrete applications to construct buildings, bridges, etc. Polycarboxylic acids are the latest and are expensive superplasticizer especially used in high-end constructions such as airports, government infrastructure, etc. The use of these superplasticizers increases the efficiency of their applications. Ready-mix concrete is a major market for superplasticizers as per a research available at http://www.reportsnreports.com/reports/274450-concrete-superplasticizer-market-by-types-snf-pc-smf-mls-application-ready-mix-precast-self-compacting-high-performance-shotcrete-others-forms-liquid-powder-geography-regional-trends-forecast-to-2018.html .

Concrete Superplasticizer Market by Types (SNF, PC, SMF & MLS), Application (Ready-Mix, Precast, Self-Compacting, High Performance, Shotcrete & Others), Forms (Liquid & Powder) & Geography - Regional Trends & Forecast to 2018 is a 241 pages research report published in 2014 providing data on 2012-2014 with forecasts to 2018. It says Middle East & Africa is the second major consumer of superplasticizers, globally. Asia-Pacific is the largest, with major developments in China and India. Middle East & Africa and Asia-Pacific together accounted for 72.7% of the superplasticizers consumption in 2012. These two regions are expected to compete with each other to dominate the market by 2018, with advanced technological developments in superplasticizers for end-users. Asia-Pacific is expected to remain the major by 2018, with high investments in construction due to growing population and demand. The North American and European segments are expected to share together 25.0% of the revenue by 2018, growing at the rates of 6.1% and 5.6%, respectively between 2013 and 2018.
