Polyurethane Catalyst Market share, Current Insights, Regional Developments, Demand and Forecast to 2030
Polyurethane is a polymer made up of organic units connected to urethane. Polyurethanes are produced from exothermic reactions between alcohols with two or more reactive hydroxyl groups per molecule and isocyanate with more than one reactive isocyanate per molecule. Polyurethane catalysts help to facilitate the formation of polyurethane. This also modifies the reaction conditions and the final product. Catalysts play a crucial role in the manufacture of polyurethane foam. The development of polyurethane foam requires a regulated environment given by Polyurethane Catalyst Market share. New low-emission, high-efficiency catalysts help manufacturers produce environmentally friendly foams. Broadly polyurethane catalysts can be categorized as amine and metallic catalysts. They are used in the formulation of various polyurethane products such as rigid foam, flexible foam, elastomer, coating, and others. As a result, the demand for polyurethane catalyst for the development of rigid foam is expected to increase with an increase in the use of polyurethane in construction activities during the forecast period.
Market Research Future (MRFR) report focuses on
polyurethane catalyst volume and value at global, regional, and company levels.
From a global perspective, this study illustrates the overall size of the
market for polyurethane catalyst by evaluating historical data and potential
prospects.
Key Players
The key players in global polyurethane catalysts market are Tosoh Corporation (Japan), Covestro AG (Germany), BASF SE (Germany), Kao Corporation (Japan), The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Huntsman International LLC (U.S.), Evonik Industries AG (Germany), Polychemie Asia Pacific Permai (Indonesia), Suzhou Xiangyuan Special Fine Chemical Co., Ltd (China), Gulbrasnson Chemical Pvt. Ltd. (India).
Market Dynamic
As polyurethane catalyst is one of the main
components of polyurethane, trends in production and supply are essential for
the Polyurethane industry. Global factors affecting the polyurethane market are
expected to affect polyurethane catalyst equally. As polyurethane products are
used in almost all sectors, the demand for polyurethane is already high. In the
last few years, the global market for polyurethane has been rising at a higher
pace due to its improved ability to adapt. This growth will, in effect, be
followed by polyurethane catalyst. Construction activities around the world are
driving demand for rigid foams, which is expected to significantly help the polyurethane
catalyst market to grow further. The rising demand for flexible foam from
automotive and electronic applications will be the primary driver of the polyurethane
catalyst market.
However, the intense competition from the
polystyrene and fiberglass industries to the polyurethane industry is a
significant issue for the demand of polyurethane catalyst. Uncertainty in the
price of polyurethane catalyst raw materials is also a constraint. The growing
production of environmentally friendly innovative products by companies, as
well as the potential health hazards of polyurethane catalysts, can impede its
growth in the market. Nonetheless, the cost-effectiveness of polyurethane will
keep the demand for polyurethane catalyst up and continue to fuel the market
during the forecast period.

The market for polyurethane catalysts has been
segmented based on product type, applications, and region.
Based on product type, the market for polyurethane
catalysts is segmented into triethylenediamine (TEDA) dibutyltin dilaurate,
1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2], dimethylethanolamine (DMEA), octane (DABCO), zinc
compound, bismuth compound, and others. Among them, demand for TEDA, DABCO,
bismuth, and zinc compound estimated to drive the global polyurethane catalyst
market.
Based on applications, the global polyurethane
catalysts market is segmented into rigid foam, flexible foam, molded foam,
elastomers, adhesives, coatings, and others. The demand for polyurethane
catalysts in rigid foams for construction and insulation is expected to further
fuel market development.
Region-wise, the market for polyurethane catalysts
has been divided into the Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, the Middle East
& Africa, and Latin America.
The Asia Pacific is predicted to dominate the
global market for polyurethane catalysts with a 45% market share as of 2016.
Increased demand for polyurethane catalysts in the area is driven by rising construction
activities conducted by both government and private players. Emerging countries
such as India, China, and Japan are investing heavily in construction to boost
demand for rigid foams. In addition to the growing demand from the automotive
and transport sectors in these regions, the polyurethane catalyst market is
expected to be further promoted.
Europe continues to have a large share of the global
polyurethane catalyst market. In addition, demand for household insulation to
improve energy efficiency, combined with regulatory requirements, will drive
the regional market.
In terms of market size, North America has a
relatively smaller market share in the global polyurethane catalysts Industry.
Yet demand for automotive interiors, insulation, furniture, and living
standards are increasing.
The Middle East & Africa is a fast-growing
business opportunity. The regional demand for polyurethane catalysts has been
driven by its demand for household insulation and by rising infrastructure
activities.
At last, the lifestyle of people in Latin American
countries, especially Brazil and Argentina, is changing. As a result, the
demand for polyurethane catalysts for the manufacture of foams to be used in
construction and automotive is anticipated to propel the growth of the regional
market.
