Growing consumption in a variety of sectors, including consumer products, automotive, industrial, medical, and electrical and electronics, has been a major factor in the expansion of the worldwide business in recent years. Over the course of the projected period, rising demand for automotive components is anticipated to be a key driver of the global industry. Environmental agencies' regulatory action, which aims to reduce carbon emissions by increasing fuel efficiency, has compelled big automakers to use plastics instead of alloys and metallic materials in automotive components.
The demand for lightweight, high-performance passenger cars among consumers has been driving plastic innovation in the automobile industry. The use of thermoplastics in the above-described application has increased as a result of these causes. Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are becoming more preferred in terms of application since they have better physical and chemical qualities than thermoset plastics. Over the course of the forecast period, a high rate of substitution of TPU and TPO for ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) in building materials is anticipated to support worldwide industry demand.
TPEs are special thermoplastics that are environmentally benign and recyclable. They can also be reshaped and remolded, which significantly reduces waste. In terms of material characteristics and traits, these provide a number of additional benefits, including resistance to substances, UV light, oxidation, and giving materials a pleasant touch. These characteristics are pushing TPEs to replace rubber and traditional plastic materials in their respective fields of use. To guarantee the highest level of consumer health and safety, a number of federal agencies, including the FDA & US Pharmacopeia, regulate usage of goods in a variety of end-use sectors. These rules, which offer recommendations for responsible product use, validate the use of TPE in commercial applications.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) implemented standards and mitigation techniques for carbon emissions from various car models as per the Clean Air Act, which became effective in October 2008. Fuel-efficient cars and industrial equipment composed of thermoplastic elastomer materials are thus in higher demand. Because of the constantly expanding automotive markets, thermoplastic elastomers will also likely be required more frequently in underhood ingredients, sealing systems, and car interiors.
The market for thermoplastic elastomers is affected by price volatility in raw materials, especially for feedstocks generated from petrochemicals including butadiene, ethylene, and propylene. The raw materials used to create thermoplastic elastomers are diverse and come from petroleum-based feedstocks, such as polyolefins, styrenics, and polyurethanes. A number of variables, such as regulatory changes, imbalances in supply and demand, geopolitical upheaval, and changes in the price of crude oil, can cause large volatility in the market value of these raw materials. These factors can have an effect on the TPE producers' cost structure and profitability. TPE producers may find it difficult to control production costs, pricing tactics, supply chain risks, and to maintain affordable rates in the market as a result of volatility in raw material prices.
