Unsaturated Polyester Resin Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges

Growth Drivers

  •  Increasing Construction Activities in Developing Countries – The increasing construction activities, both residential and commercial, in emerging countries are fueling the demand for unsaturated polyester resins since they have excellent tensile strength, bending strength, impact strength, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, and electric property, making them suitable for housing and construction materials. For instance, foreign direct investment (FDI) in India between April 2000 and September 2022, in the development of construction projects, such as townships, housing, and built-up infrastructure amounted to approximately USD 26.23 billion.
  • Rapid Expansion of the Paints & Coatings Industry – The rapid expansion of the paints and coatings industry presents a significant growth opportunity for the unsaturated polyester resin market. As they are used for surface coating as filler, sealer, and top-coat of wood to provide better scratch resistance, and chemical resistance, to reduce hardness, and to increase flexibility and impact strength. Furthermore, the rising utilization of coating resins in architectural coatings due to their versatility, and properties, such as adhesion, durability, and weather resistance is propelling its market growth. According to the American Coatings Association (ACA), nearly 868 million gallons of architectural paint were utilized in the US in 2021.
  • Rising Projects of Wind Power- In 2021, global offshore wind installations reached a new high of 17,398 MW, extending the total power generation capacity actually installed to 50,623 MW spanning 257 projects. Unsaturated polyester resin is utilized in making the wind turbine blades by getting mixed in the matrix.

Challenges

  • Availability of Alternative – The availability of substitutes, such as epoxy resin may hinder the growth of unsaturated polyester resin. Epoxy has a low shrinkage percentage, which is important for applications requiring geometrical precision. Further, it also has high environmental durability; more resistant to wearing, cracking, peeling, and corrosion or damage from chemical and environmental degradation since it is resistant to moisture.
  • Rising Raw Material Prices
  • Complexity with the Use of Styrene in Producing Unsaturated Polyester Resin

Unsaturated Polyester Resin Segmentation

Product {Dicyclopentadiene (DCPD), Orthophthalic, and Isophthalic}

By the end of 2035, the isophthalic segment in the unsaturated polyester resin market is anticipated to garner the largest revenue of USD 10.38 Billion and is further expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period. Isophthalic resin is the widely used resin for corrosion-resistant structures. Besides, it is primarily used for the manufacturing of moldings and laminates, which are highly resistant to chemicals and heat, but it can also be used in other areas such as construction materials or exterior decorating. It is, however, most expensive than other types of molding materials and is not easy to handle due to its high styrene content i.e., 42% to 50%.

End User (Building & Construction, Tanks & Pipes, Electrical, Marine, Transport, Paints & Coatings)

The tanks & pipes segment is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR of 7.4% during the upcoming years. Unsaturated polyester resins are used for manufacturing fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) which is reinforced with glass fiber used for water tanks, septic tanks, tanks, and pipes.  In addition, there has been increasing use of tanks and pipes in chemical plants, agriculture, and pipeline construction.

Our in-depth analysis of the global market includes the following segments:
