Global Silica-based Matting Agents Market is projected to clock 5.29% CAGR from 2018 to 2026

 The global silica-based matting agents market was valued at US$ 496.6 Mn in 2017 and is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 5.29% from 2018 to 2026, according to a new report titled ‘Silica-based Matting Agents Market: Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Forecast, 2018–2026,’ published by Transparency Market Research (TMR) Rise in demand for silica-based matting agents from the wood coatings segment drives the global market. Asia Pacific accounts for a major share of the global silica-based matting agents market. 

Rise in Consumers Preference for Low Gloss and Matt Surface Finishes

Currently, demand for paints and coatings with low-gloss matte finish is lesser than that for paints and coatings with glossy finish. End-users, especially in the consumer industry such as the automotive sector, prefer glossy finishes. Therefore, demand for paints and coatings with low-gloss matte finishes is rising at a moderate pace. Matting agents are extensively employed in architectural coatings due to the high preference for low-gloss finishes. Customer preference for low-sheen, low-gloss, and matte-finish products is rising due to the increase in awareness about the benefits of low-glare products. Low-gloss surfaces prove to be less disturbing visually, especially in larger spaces. Rise in demand for matte finishes and growth of end-user industries such as automotive and construction are anticipated to fuel the demand for matting agents in various coating formulations, especially wood and coil coating formulations, during the forecast period.

Technological Incompatibility with UV-cured Coatings to Restrain Market

Demand for UV-cured coatings has been increasing significantly in the last few years. Major factors influencing the choice of coatings for any application include cycle times, cost efficiency, and emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Currently, the matting agents technology is not compatible with UV-cured coatings. Therefore, rise in preference for UV-cured coatings is anticipated to hamper the silica-based matting agents market in the next few years, unless an alternative matting technology, which is compatible with UV-cured coatings, is developed. 

Precipitated Silica Segment to Dominate Global Silica-based Matting Agents Market

Based on type, the global silica-based matting agents market has been segmented into precipitated silica, fumed silica, natural silica, silica gel, perlite, and flux-calcined diatomaceous earth. The precipitated silica segment is anticipated to dominate the silica-based matting agents market. Precipitated silica has a unique surface structure, favorable flowability, and high absorptivity. Its physical properties can be manipulated during its manufacturing to suit the requirements of the application. It is extensively employed as a matting agent in the paints & coatings industry. The segment is estimated to account for a dominant share of the market during the forecast period. The natural silica segment is estimated to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period, as it is a natural product and its environment friendly. Demand for solvent-free coating technologies such as UV curing is rising. Silica-based matting agents are efficient and compatible with UV cure coatings. Therefore, the others segment is anticipated to expand at a substantial pace during the forecast period.

Tunnel Boring Machine Market: Applications, Revenue, Growth and Trends

  Tunnel boring machines are gigantic special-purpose machines, particularly used in building tunnels for roads, railways, and pipelines. These machines are long with circular cross-sections and help in boring round holes through any rock. Tunnel boring machines are intricate assemblies of several systems working in conjunction with each other. Diameter of tunnel boring machines ranges from 1 meter to 20 meters. These machines can cut clean through rocks, sometimes along with creating concrete shields around the bored tunnels. The tunnel boring machine market is largely driven by the increase in spending on road and railway infrastructure. Countries such as China, Japan, Italy, South Korea, Norway, and Germany have vast tunnel networks. The key reason is to connect major cities within the country, sometimes even international, with minimum commute time. This largely optimizes the transportation costs and connects cities to boost commerce. The other method for building tunnels is...
