Benzophenone Market-Type, Applications, Covid-19 Impact and Segment Forecasts, 2020-2030

Global Benzophenone Market: Introduction

 

·         Benzophenone is used as a photo initiator in UV-curing applications such as inks, imaging, and clear coatings in the printing industry. It belongs to the class of UV absorbers.  Benzophenone acts by changing the conformational structure, emitting higher wavelength, and converting UV light into heat. It offers low to moderate stabilization performance for general applications. Benzophenone is often used in paints and coatings due to its excellent solubility in the oil phase and low melting point.

·         In home care applications, benzophenone is primarily used as a fragrance ingredient in laundry and cleaning products. It is added to perfumes to provide protection against degradation from UV rays and air. Additionally, benzophenone is often used as an industrial photo initiator in adhesives and sealants.

Properties of Benzophenone to Drive Market

 

·         The global benzophenone market is driven by the rise in demand for benzophenone in various applications such as paints & coatings, adhesives & sealants, agrochemical, pharmaceutical, home care, and personal care. Ability of benzophenone to prevent discoloration and photo degradation of physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of polymers from UV light is expected to drive the market in the near future.  

Covid-19 Pandemic and Stiff Competition from Substitutes to Hamper Benzophenone Market

 

·         Benzophenone is primarily employed in the production of paints & coatings formulations, which are further  used in the building & construction sector. However, disruption as well as modification of the supply chain due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic is anticipated to adversely affect the demand for benzophenone in the building & construction sector. Weakening of the global economy due to the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic is further estimated to hamper the benzophenone market.

·         Prominent substitutes of benzophenone include benzotriazole, triazine, and hindered amine light stabilizers. Benzotriazole offers high and broad absorption ranging from 270nm to 400nm and is compatible with a wide range of polymer systems and additives. This helps prevent gloss reduction, cracking, blistering, and color change. Additionally, these types of UV absorbers offer better properties than benzophenone, even though the cost of benzotriazole Is bit higher than benzophenone. Therefore, benzotriazole is used extensively in formulations of paints and coatings. On the other hand, triazine possesses superior light fastness property compared to benzotriazole and benzophenone. Additionally, it can be used for acidic rain applications or acid-catalyzed systems. This is expected to hamper the benzophenone market in the next few years.

Asia Pacific to Hold Major Share of Global Benzophenone Market

 

·         Based on region, the global benzophenone market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa

·         Asia Pacific is a leading global consumer of benzophenone.  China is one of the leading producers of benzophenone across the world. Rapid economic growth, improvement in the standard of living of the people, and large-scale urbanization have boosted the demand for benzophenone in Asia Pacific. Government programs such as the National Smart Cities Mission are projected to boost the construction industry in India. This, in turn, is anticipated to augment the benzophenone market in Asia Pacific. However, the Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted the building & construction sector. This is estimated to hamper the consumption of benzophenone in the near future. However, building & construction sector is expected to bounce back after two to three years, thereby fueling demand for benzophenone across Asia Pacific in the near future.

·         Prominent manufacturers of benzophenone operating across North America include SI Group, Inc., 3V Sigma USA Inc., Valtris Specialty Chemicals, and Mayzo, Inc. These producers are primarily engaged in enhancing existing chemistries and processes as well as development of innovative and unique products through extensive research & development activities.

·         The market in Brazil is much larger compared to that in Mexico due to the former’s expanding economy. However, the market in Mexico is likely to expand significantly during the forecast period owing to the rise in investment by certain automakers in the country. Additionally, increase in investments in transport infrastructure, energy, and housing projects is expected to drive the paints & coatings sector in the near future. This, in turn, is projected to boost the benzophenone market in Latin America in the near future.

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...
