DUBLIN, Jan. 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ --
The "Opacifiers Market by Type, Application - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
In 2017, the global market size of opacifiers was USD 14,323.6 million and is expected to reach USD 20,625.8 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 6.2%, during the forecast period. The growth of the application segments such as personal care, ceramics, and paints & coatings are expected to support the growing demand for opacifiers.
In the opacifiers market, stringent regulations for the use of certain oxides, such as titanium dioxide and antimony trioxide, are considered a restraint. Factors such as the role of nanotechnology in titanium dioxide production, technological advancements in opaque polymers, and increasing demand for ceramics from the developing economies are major opportunities for the market players. Rapid industrialization; increasing disposable income; and changing lifestyle, and increasing demand for personal care products are the driving factors for the opacifiers market.
APAC is estimated to be the largest market for opacifiers due to its growing economy and increasing population. This growth is mainly due to the increasing population and improving lifestyles at each financial stratum. Furthermore, companies are increasing investments in R&D to find more applications of opacifiers in unconventional industry segments to increase their scope and demand. The opacifiers market is competitive with the presence of a small number of global as well as local players.
The key players operating in the market are DowDuPont (US), Arkema, Ashland Global Holding Inc. (US), Tayca Corporation (Japan), and Tronox Limited (US).
