Global Petrochemicals & Polymers Market, Products (Ethylene, Propylene, Butadiene, Benzene, Xylene, Toluene, Vinyls, Styrene , Methanol) Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2014 - 2021
PR Newswire - Thu Oct 15, 3:07PM CDT
Polyurethane is polymer made from monomer units of urethane (carbamate). Polyurethanes are versatile material which can converted in various forms such as thermosetting plastics, thermoplastics and synthetic rubber (elastomer). Most of polyurethanes are thermosetting plastics which do not melt when heated. Most commonly polyurethanes are made by the reaction of polyol and polyisocyanate. Commercially methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and diisocyanate (TDI) are used for production of polyurethanes. Different types of polyurethanes are available in the market such as flexible polyurethane foam, rigid polyurethane foam, thermoplastic polyurethanes and polyurethane binders for variety of applications such as Automotive, building & construction, Footwear, furniture & bedding, Electronics and many other applications. Raw materials used for the production of polyurethanes are polyol and isocynates. These materials are petrochemicals which are derived from the crude oil. TDI and MDI are the commonly used Isocynates in the market.There are many big players who are into the MDI, TDI and polyol market such as BASF, Bayer, Dow Chemicals, Sadara group and many more. Supply of raw material is a factor for the production of polyurethanes. In the market there is oversupply of the raw materials therefore the market is competitive. Asia Pacific is the largest supplier of raw material for the production of polyurethanes. There is no issue with supply of the raw material however the price of raw material is not stable due to fluctuation in crude oil price. These raw materials are derived from the crude oil therefore the fluctuation in oil price is a big concern here.The two major application areas that show significant benefits in terms of energy efficiency from polyurethane are construction and transportation. In building and construction use of Polyurethane in polyurethane roof and wall insulation, wall and window insulation and pipe insulation ensures that temperatures are maintained. Use of Polyurethane in cars and trucks leads to a reduction in vehicle weight, and therefore provides greater fuel economy. Polyurethane thermal insulation in refrigerators, freezers, water heaters and other such appliances, requires less energy to power these units.

Global Bio-Polyethylene Terephthalate Market 2015 - Analysis and Forecasts to 2019
M2 - Tue Jul 28, 5:44AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mdcp45/global) has announced the addition of the "Global Bio-Polyethylene Terephthalate Market - Analysis and Forecasts to 2019" report to their offering. The global bio-polyethylene terephthalate market was valued at $457.9 million in 2014, and is projected to reach $1,317.5 million by 2019, at a CAGR of 23.5% from 2014 to 2019. Bio-polyethylene terephthalate is a thermosetting resin, manufactured from bio-based ethylene glycol. It is primarily used to manufacture packaging products such as bottles, consumer goods, food packaging, and others. Due to its superior properties in comparison to the petroleum-based products, there is an increasing demand of such materials among end-user industries, such as remodeling/ construction, automobile, and consumer goods. Rise in demand of bio-polyethylene terephthalate from varied industry verticals and increasing initiatives undertaken by companies to expand its bio-based product portfolio are factors contributing to the growth of global bio-polyethylene terephthalate market. The global bio-PET market is mainly segmented on the basis of application and geography. By geography, this market is classified into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and rest of the world. North America dominates the global bio-polyethylene terephthalate market in terms of volume, by accounting for a share of 41.9% in 2014. The bottles application segment of this market accounted for a share of 95.2% in 2014. This growth is mainly attributed to the increasing demand for bottles among various industries, such as food & beverage, and medical among others. Key Topics Covered: 1 Introduction 2 Research Methodology 3 Executive Summary 4 Market Overview 5 Bio-Polyethylene Terephthalate Market, By Application 6 Bio-Polyethylene Terephthalate Market, By Geography 7 Bio-Polyethylene Terephthalate Market: Competitive Landscape 8 Bio- Polyethylene Terephthalate Market, By Company - Indorama Ventures - Toyota Tsusho Corporation - Teijin Limited - Gevo Inc. - Toray Industries, Inc. - Virent Inc. - China Man-Made Fiber Corporation - The Coca Cola Company - Anellotech, Inc. - Clear Lam Packaging Inc.

Barrier Layers for Flexible Electronics 2015-2025: Technologies, Markets, Forecasts (Updated 2015 Report)
M2 - Fri Jul 24, 5:38AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/5xz833/barrier_layers) has announced the addition of the "Barrier Layers for Flexible Electronics 2015-2025: Technologies, Markets, Forecasts" report to their offering. A large opportunity lies in the development of devices in a flexible form factor that can operate without deterioration in performance, allowing them to be more robust, lightweight and versatile in their use. In order for flexible displays and photovoltaics to be commercially successful, they must be robust enough to survive for the necessary time and conditions required of the device. This condition has been a limitation of many flexible, organic or printable electronics. This highlights the fact that beyond flexibility, printability and functionality, one of the most important requirements is encapsulation as many of the materials used in printed or organic electronic displays are chemically sensitive, and will react with many environmental components such as oxygen and moisture. These materials can be protected using substrates and barriers such as glass and metal, but this results in a rigid device and does not satisfy the applications demanding flexible devices. Plastic substrates and transparent flexible encapsulation barriers can be used, but these offer little protection to oxygen and water, resulting in the devices rapidly degrading. In order to achieve device lifetimes of tens of thousands of hours, water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) must be 10-6 g/m2/day, and oxygen transmission rates (OTR) must be < 10-3 cm3/m2/day. For Organic Photovoltaics, the required WVTR is not as stringent as OLEDs require but is still very high at a level of 10-5 g/m2/day. These transmission rates are several orders of magnitude smaller than what is possible using any conventional plastic substrate, and they can also be several orders of magnitude smaller than what can be measured using common equipment designed for this purpose. For these (and other) reasons, there has been intense interest in developing transparent barrier materials with much lower permeabilities, a market that will reach over $550 million by 2025. Key Topics Covered: 1. Scope 2. Barrier Technology Reaching Maturity - Commercialization Status 3. Introduction To Encapsulation 4. Surface Smoothness - Defects 5. Barrier Technologies: Past Developments 6. Advances In Barrier Manufacturing Processes 7. Barrier Adhesives 8. Company Profiles 9. Addressable Market Segments For Barrier Film Technologies 10.
