Emulsion polymer is a polymer obtained by radical
polymerization that usually starts with an emulsion incorporating water,
monomer, and surfactant. They are called as water-borne polymers because of
their high water content when compared to solvent-borne polymers. Emulsion
Polymers (EP) includes different types of waterborne polymers such as acrylic
emulsion, vinyl emulsion, SB latex, and others. Better thermal stability,
elasticity, and improved adhesion are the important characteristics of emulsion
polymers. Monomers (styrene, butyl acrylate, etc.), surfactants, stabilizers
(acrylic acid), and initiators are the key raw materials used in the
manufacturing of emulsion polymers. Emulsion polymers are widely employed into
manufacturing of other commercially important polymers.

The major driving factor for the global emulsion polymers
market is rapidly growing in building & construction and automotive
industry. Another key driving factor is increasing awareness regarding volatile
organic compounds (VOCs). Revival of global economy with rise in residential
and commercial construction activity and strong demand for automotive industry
is in turn driving demand for paints & coating, adhesives, etc. Paints
& coatings and adhesives are key application market for emulsion polymers.
Especially, building & construction, electronics and automotive industry is
expected to witness robust growth in emerging economies such as China, India,
Brazil, etc. This in turn expected to fuel growth of emulsion polymers market.
However, fluctuations in raw material prices and supply are expected to remain
major concern for the manufacturers.
The emulsion polymer market is segmented on the basis of
product such as acrylics, styrene-butadiene latex, vinyl acetate polymers,
polyurethane, others (silicone, hybrid epoxy, etc.). In 2014, acrylics was the
leading product segment for emulsion polymer, which accounted for over 35%
share of the entire market. Acrylics are widely used in the processing of
acrylic emulsion paints and coatings, adhesives, and paper and paperboard. Vinyl
acetate emulsion is also expected to witness strong demand from vinyl
acetate-ethylene (VAE) copolymers for adhesives and coatings applications.
Moreover, in terms of volume, this is one of the fastest growing product
segments. Styrene-butadiene latex is another growing segment held the second
largest share in the global emulsion polymers market owing to its increasing
usage in adhesives, textiles & non-woven and the paper and paperboard
coatings industry.

On the basis of application, the emulsion polymer market has
been classified into paints & coatings, paper & paperboard, adhesives,
textiles & non-woven, others (leather, etc.). Paints and coatings was the
largest application market for Emulsion polymer in 2014. Paints & Coatings
followed by adhesives and paper & paperboard coatings. Adhesive is the
second-largest application of emulsion polymer and it is expected to boost the
demand for emulsion polymers during the forecast period. Paperboard coatings
also accounted for significant share of the global emulsion polymers market in
2014. Other applications (such as leather industry) are also expected to
witness fast growth during the forecast period.
Asia Pacific dominated the emulsion polymer market and
accounted for the largest share of the global market in 2014. Asia Pacific is
followed by Europe and North America. Asia Pacific region will continue to see
above average growth in demand throughout forecast period driven by strong
growth in China and India. In terms of volume, Middle East & Africa and
Asia Pacific are expected to witness robust growth during the forecast period.
Availability of cheap labor, favorable weather conditions, and governmental
support are some of the factors driving the emulsion polymers market in these
regions. The Latin America Europe and North America are also expected to
experience significant growth of emulsion polymer market in the years to come.
