Factors Affecting the Growth of the Specialty Adhesives Industry:
These changes in adhesive formulation technology are continually improving characteristics, including thermal stability, durability, and eco-friendliness and are, therefore, meeting the new industry requirements of aerospace, automotive, and electronic applications. Furthermore, the creation of products which can also adhere to components that are subjected to very high temperatures or pressures is becoming critical in the aerospace industry where structural reliability and performance capability are highly valued. In addition, advances in the automobile manufacturing industry resulting in the provision of lighter vehicles and better fuel economy requires adhesives that first join different materials effectively, and secondly they must do so while not negatively impacting structural strength. That is why manufacturers are turning to research operations to tailor adhesive solutions that are stronger and universalized.
Authorities in different nations are setting strict standards on the VOC and this is forcing manufacturers to seek to produce environmentally friendly adhesives. This shift in regulation is shaping water born and solvent less adhesive usage which is less hazardous to the environment than solvent based ones. Also, the use and demand for green building materials, and the growth in the customer clientele base looking forward to purchasing sustainable products as a way of promoting environmental conservation, is also boosting the demand for adhesives which are environmentally friendly. It is these factors that both advance the development of new grades of adhesives while also changing the relationships within the market as producers and consumers both pay increasing attention to those aspects of compliance with the environment and safety.
Specialty adhesives are designed for specific industry types including the medical devices, the military, and electronics among others. In the medical field adhesives should be biocompatible and capable of withstanding sterilization treatment hence it is suitable in the bonding of instruments and wearable devices. Also, global electronics industries demands miniaturization and high precision standards result in increased calls for specialty electronics adhesive with high bond strength, flexibility and reliability in compact areas. This ability to work under stiff conditions and the versatility these adhesives offer to specific uses is helping to fuel the market.
