Description
Soluble synthetic and natural polymers are used to produce waterborne adhesives. After application, these adhesives get absorbed by the substrate soon after the water evaporates. However, some polymers are water soluble, hence can’t provide much resistance to moisture. But there are benefits like high initial adhesion, solid content and low or no solvent content which make it particularly useful in the industry.
End-user/Technology
Waterborne adhesives are increasingly used in sectors like building and construction, electrical and electronics, transportation, healthcare etc. These adhesives are normally produced as dry powders to be mixed with water for anapplication or as solutions. Due to low-toxic and eco-friendly nature, waterborne adhesives are also applicable for end users like footwear and leather, packaging, building and construction, furniture etc.
Market Dynamics
Factors predicted to drive market growth and demand worldwide are as follows
• As it is eco-friendly and less toxic, it’s increasingly used in packaging
• Due to its non-reactive nature, it’s also used in food packaging
• Advancement in the production of bio-based adhesives is driving the market growth
• High adhesion properties, eco-friendly and high solid content make waterborne adhesives applicable both for commercial and industrial sectors
