Market Overview

Binder or a binding agent is a material that holds different materials together in order to provide a strong cohesion or adhesion to the whole structure.
The binders commonly occur in a solid or liquid state which undergoes a chemical process to be used as a binding agent. The polymeric binders are both waterborne and solvent borne depending upon the type of solvent used. The important physical properties conferred by the polymer binders to the substrate are the excellent binding, high strength and durability, and relative inertness towards various chemicals. In the market, polymer binders mainly occur in the form of liquid, powder and high solids. The major applications of the polymer binders are paints & coatings, construction, textiles & carpets, paper & boards, and pharmaceuticals, among others.

Based on form the Polymer Binders Industry has been segmented into liquid, powder, high solids, and others. Liquid segment held the largest market share in 2017 on account of its easy process ability and preferability in paints and coatings applications. Powder form is also growing at a healthy CAGR during the forecast period.

By type, the market is categorized into acrylic, vinyl acetate, polyurethane (PU), polyester (PE), and other. Among them, acrylic accounted to the largest share of the market in 2017. This mainly due to wider scope of application of these type of polymer binders in paints and coatings industry for longevity of the paint. The product is primarily used in manufacturing the various coatings and paints. Moreover, it also used in the automotive components for effective bonding of the parts. This is anticipated to fuel demand for the product during the review period.

On the basis of application, the global polymer binders market has been categorized into paints & coatings, construction, textiles & carpets, paper & boards, and pharmaceuticals, among others. The paints and coatings industry held the major market share in 2017, which mainly attributed to the surging demand in the emerging economies. The textiles industry is also a significant consumers of the polymer binders.
