Recyclable Thermosets Market Size, Share & Trends Estimation Report by Types(Mechanical Recycling,Energy Recovery,Feedstock Recycling),By Thermoset Type(Unsaturated Polyester Resin,Epoxy Resin,Phenolic Resin),by Applications(Construction,Automotive,Power Generation), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030
The Recyclable Thermosets Market size was valued at US$ 344.15 Million in 2022 and the total revenue is expected to grow at 3% through 2023 to 2030, reaching nearly US$ 410.93 Million in the forecast period.
Recyclable Thermosets Market Overview:
Thermosets are a special class of polymers that form well-defined, permanent chemical networks that appear to expand in three dimensions during curing, which can be achieved by heating or adding a curing agent. This leads to the formation of crosslinks, which give thermosets a strong and rigid structure and can be added to other materials for added strength.
Thermoset materials are highly utilized in advanced applications, especially in the aerospace and military industries, as a wide variety of composite materials can be produced in the presence of thermoset materials. These include reinforced carbon fiber and glass. Although polymers are widely used in various industrial applications, recycling thermoset plastics is very difficult. This is likely to act as a major restraining factor for the thermoset plastics market. Existing thermoset plastics or polymers are difficult to reshape or reset once they have cured in the recycling process. Therefore, they burn and decompose at very high temperatures. This is the major restraint of the market that may hamper the growth of the global recycled thermoset plastics market in the future.
Recyclable Thermosets market size, estimates, and forecasts are provided in terms of sales volume (K Units) and revenue (million USD), with historical and forecast data for the period 2017 to 2030, with 2022 being considered as the base year. This report segments the global Recyclable Thermosets market in detail. Regional market sizes related to products by type, by application, and by player are also delivered. In estimating the size of the market, we considered the impact of COVID-19 and the Russian-Ukraine war.
Key Market Updates:
- In January 2021, Eastman Chemical Company announced it would invest approximately $250 million over the next two years to build one of the world's largest plastic-to-plastic molecule recycling facilities at its Kingsport, Tennessee, facility. Eastman Chemical Company is an American company primarily engaged in the recycling industry.
- In November 2020, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced more than $27 million in funding for 12 projects to support the development of advanced plastic recycling technologies and the design of new plastics for recycling in 2020-2021. As part of the DOE Plastics Innovation Challenge, the projects will also help improve existing recycling processes that break down plastics into their chemical building blocks. This will help replace recycled products instead of new plastic products.
- In July 2019, Aditya Birla Chemical acquired recyclable thermoset technology from Connor Technologies. Connor Technologies is a pioneer in recyclable epoxy resin technology. Aditya Birla Group and Connor Technologies have been in a joint development agreement since 2016 to scale up the manufacturing of Connor's recyclable epoxy thermoset technology. The technology not only creates incremental value for customers through zero-waste manufacturing but also provides end-of-life recycling options for Aditya Birla chemicals.
- In February 2015, Aditya Birla Chemicals (India) Limited merged with Grasim Industries Limited. The merger integrates Aditya Birla Group's Chlor-alkali business into Grasim and strengthens its existing portfolio of viscose staple fiber, caustic soda, and related chemicals in a stand-alone company. The merger will allow Grasim to diversify geographically by adding to ABCIL's nationwide manufacturing facilities. It also enables businesses to capitalize on growth opportunities by introducing operational and financial synergies, backed by the strength of Grasim.
