Global Thermoplastic Elastomers Market Growth Accelerated by Thermoplastic Elastomers Wide Applications
Thermoplastic Elastomers Market |
Thermoplastic elastomers are widely used in the automotive, food, packaging and construction industries due to their thermoplastic properties and elasticity. Thermoplastic elastomers can be easily processed like conventional plastics while exhibiting elastic behavior and properties similar to vulcanized rubbers. These polymers provide advantages such as recyclability, custom fabrication and low temperature impact resistance.
The global
thermoplastic elastomers market is estimated to be valued at US$ 28.8 Bn in
2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 7.0% over the forecast period 2023 to
2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.
Market key trends:
The increasing automotive production worldwide is one of the major factors
driving the growth of the thermoplastic elastomers market. Thermoplastic
elastomers are widely used in automotive interior, exterior, electrical cables,
hoses and wiring applications due to their high elasticity, heat and aging
resistance and design flexibility. According to the International Organization
of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), around 100 million vehicles were
produced globally in 2022 indicating a significant demand for thermoplastic
elastomers. New grades of thermoplastic elastomers such as styrenic block
copolymers (TPE-S) and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) are also gaining
popularity owing to their recyclability, custom fabrication and mechanical
properties. The development of bio-based and recyclable thermoplastic
elastomers using renewable feedstocks is expected to present lucrative
opportunities over the forecast period.
