Market Trends of South America Pressure Sensitive Adhesives (PSA) Industry
This section covers the major market trends shaping the South America Pressure Sensitive Adhesives Market according to our research experts:
Water-borne PSAs to Witness the Highest Growth Rate
- Water-borne PSAs use water as a solvent, along with a polymer and a water dispersal agent. The majority of these PSAs are made from acrylic compounds.
- They provide a wide array of performance advantages, such as better chemical and heat resistance, compared to other categories. Water-borne adhesives are used in tapes and labels, where water is retained and not absorbed by coating.
- Packaging labels and adhesive films in the growing food & beverage and electrical & electronics industries are expected to boost the consumption of water-based adhesives during the forecast period.
- Hence, owning to the above-mentioned factors, water-borne PSAs are expected to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
