Rheology modifiers when added to a fluid composition alter its rheology as per industrial requirement. They are commonly referred to as thickeners or viscosifiers. Rheology modifiers play a key role in controlling the rheology of fluids in various end-user industries such as pharmaceuticals, pulp and paper, paints and coatings, personal care, adhesives and sealants and construction. They help in improving the texture, moisture retention, increasing stability and dry strength, resisting bacterial attack, preventing shrinkage and controlling crystal ice formation.
The rheology modifiers are segmented according to the product as organic and inorganic. Organic rheology modifier is the largest product segment. The rheology modifiers are classified according to application as paints and coatings, personal care, adhesives and sealants, textiles, pharmaceuticals, construction, pulp and paper and others. Paints and coatings are the largest segment for rheology modifiers. The pharmaceutical segment is expected to grow during the forecast period.
The major drivers for this market are the growth of end-user industries for paints & coatings, personal care and construction. The changing lifestyle and increase in purchasing power of consumers in developing nations has led to greater demand for personal care products which is also helping to boost the market. The rapidly growing construction industry, increasing demand for automotive, and rising demand for adhesives and sealants in the developing economies are also helping to boost the market. The key constraints of this market are the shift from print to digital media in the inks market and declining R&D investments.
Asia-Pacific is the major rheology modifiers market and is projected to continue growth during the forecast period. It is due to factors such as increasing demand of paints & coatings industries in this region.
