Ester
Gum Market: Highlights
·
Ester gum is a modified natural resin made from rosin that has
been esterified by heating polyhydric alcohols such as glycerol. Ester gum
contains glyceryl, methyl, and ethyl esters of rosin acids. These are lighter
in color than rosin and have higher softening point but lower acid number.
·
Rosin is a natural product derived from pine trees and consists
of a complex mixture of mutually soluble organic compounds. Rosins are produced
commercially through three methods: solvent extraction of aged and ground pine
stumps (wood rosin); extraction of crude tall oil as a byproduct of the Kraft
pulping process for making paper followed by acidification and fractional
distillation (tall oil rosin); and tapping the living tree to collect oleoresin
followed by distillation to yield turpentine and a resinous substance (gum
rosin). Gum, tall oil, and wood rosins are obtained from pine trees. Therefore,
they are similar in composition.
·
Ester gum is used in various applications including chewing gum,
beverages, paints, inks & coatings, adhesives, and cosmetics
Key
Drivers of Ester Gum Market
·
Rise in demand for ester gum in the paints & coatings
industry is expected to fuel the global
ester gum market in the next few years due to its characteristics such
as usage in toluene-acetone blends and nitrocellulose lacquers. Additionally,
ester gum is majorly modified with maleic anhydride for sealers and varnish
applications to provide hardness. Increase in usage of pentaerythritol ester
gum in coatings for lithography applications is a key factor expected to drive
the market in the near future.
