The top three revenue contributing type segments are discussed below

Global orthophthalic resin market: The relatively high market share of orthophthalic resins is attributable to their characteristics such as cost-efficiency, toughness, and chemical resistance. They find application in the manufacture of hulls and decks of boats, road transport components, wind blades, fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) structures, laminating resins, and in various other applications such as adhesives, buttons, castings, composites, encapsulation, flooring materials, molding, and others.

As the demand for renewable and sustainable green resins is increasing, companies manufacturing UPR are constantly making innovations in their products to differentiate UPR from substitutes available in the market,” says Ajay Adikari, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on paints, polymers, and pigments.

Global DCPD resin market: The lower shrinkage property of DCPD resins offers superior smoothness with very minimal or no visual print-through from reinforcing fibers. The mandate to comply with regulations pertaining to the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) and toxic gases at workplace and manufacturing sites imposed by government bodies in North America and Europe is expected to propel the demand for DCPD resins during the forecast period.

Global isophthalic resin market: Isophthalic resins have better corrosion resistance, high service temperature, and improved mechanical properties compared with orthophthalic resins. These resins are most commonly used in the manufacture of consumer goods such as marbles, buttons, cultured marbles, and quartz. They are also used in laminating resins, corrugated sheets, car putty, and FRP fabricating applications.
