Market Insight

The commercial production of synthetic latex polymer started during World War II. With U.S. government sponsorship, several companies involved in rubber research and production initiated the production of Government Rubber-Styrene (GR-S) at a commercial level with the help of research from the government, academics, and independent laboratories. Research and development of latex continued after the end of the war and as a result, the modern synthetic rubber industry was created. Many types of synthetic latex, such as Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR), Polybutadiene Rubber (BR), Polyisoprene Rubber (IR), and others, are been manufactured now, all with distinct characteristics. SBR and BR are the most commonly used type of latex, as they are important in the production of tires. In general, synthetic latex is produced by combining monomers derived from refined sources of hydrocarbons such as coal, crude petroleum, and natural gas. Furthermore, synthetic latex polymers have found their application in several industries including paint, coating, adhesives, sealants, paper, construction, glove dipping, carpets, nonwovens, textiles, and others. The development of innovative materials and production processes has further driven the synthetic latex polymer market.

 

The spread of COVID-19 has severely affected the synthetic latex polymer market across the globe. COVID-19 pandemic affected the global synthetic latex polymer market by hindering production and demand, disrupting the supply chain, and by its impact on firms and the financial markets. The demand for synthetic latex polymer has decreased from the end-users. The COVID19 pandemic has severely affected the sale of end-user industries. Several end-users have stopped their production or closed their production unit. The shortage of raw materials is another major challenge faced by the industry during the pandemic. Furthermore, the lower production of latex polymers in countries including China, Taiwan, India, and Japan has created a shortage in the global market. Other countries dependent on the import are facing a severe shortage of synthetic latex polymers during the pandemic. The lower production and shortage of synthetic latex polymers in the market are estimated to hamper the market growth in the short term.

 

The increasing demand for synthetic latex polymers for paints and coatings is driving market growth. Latex based paints and coatings have several advantages over oil-based paints and coatings including convenient usage, quick-drying, low or near zero VOCs, and easy to clean-up and re-coat. These advantages of synthetic latex polymers are anticipated to boost its adoption for paints and coatings applications. Moreover, the growing construction and automotive sectors are supporting the growth of the market. Construction and automotive industries widely use synthetic latex polymers for various applications including paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, carpets, and nonwoven textiles. Thus, the growing construction and automotive industries augment the growth of the synthetic latex polymers market as they are the leading end-use industries. However, as synthetic latex polymers are produced by combining monomers derived from refined sources of hydrocarbons such as crude petroleum, and natural gas, the fluctuating prices of crude oil are expected to hamper the market growth for synthetic latex polymers. Nevertheless, the growing demand for electrical and electronic goods from the developing regions is anticipated to boost the market growth in the future. The majority of the electrical and electronic products use synthetic latex for applications including adhesives and sealants. Thus, the growing production and sale of electrical and electronic goods in developing economies are anticipated to augment the market growth in the future.

 

In terms of region, the global synthetic latex polymer market is dominated by the Asia Pacific region. A large population of consumers along with improving economic conditions is augmenting the market growth in the region. Moreover, the higher sale of automobiles and electronic goods in the region augments the demand for synthetic latex polymers in the Asia Pacific. Furthermore, the growing urban population in the region is further supporting the market growth for synthetic latex polymers in the Asia Pacific. On the other hand, the North American region accounted for the second-largest revenue in the global synthetic latex polymer market. The growing construction industry in North America is anticipated to boost the demand for synthetic latex polymers for paint, coating, construction, carpets, and nonwovens applications. Additionally, the increasing production and export of electrical and electronics goods in North America are further augmenting the growth of the market.
