Market Overview:
Blowing agents are available in
two types namely exothermic and endothermic. The blowing agents decompose and
generate environmentally neutral gases when heated. The endothermic type
blowing agents are used because they carry out gas production until heat input
is provided. This makes endothermic blowing agents easy to manage during
processing. Moreover, the endothermic blowing agents absorb heat energy from
their surroundings. This ideally reduces the mould cooling times and the
ability to reduce mould cycle times in injection moulding. Thus, the
endothermic blowing agents is dominating the market.

Hydrochlorofluorocarbons,
hydrocarbons, hydrofluorocarbons, and hydrofluoroolefins are some of the
blowing agents’ product. The hydrocarbons segment is likely to dominate the
global market owing to their ease of application, good efficiency, and
negligible global warming potential. Moreover, they possess good material
compatibility and solubility with lubricants as compared to the CFCs or HFCs.
The application segment includes
rigid polyurethane, flexible polyurethane, integral skin polyurethane,
polystyrene, polyolefin, phenolic, and others. The rigid and flexible
polyurethane together dominate the global market due to their high demand from
various end-use industries such as appliances, automotive, building &
construction, electronics, flooring, marine, furnishing, and others. The rigid
polyurethane is used for insulation in refrigerators & freezers, roofing
& walls, and for sandwich panels. It is also used in boat manufacturing for
both structural and flotation purposes. The flexible polyurethane is used for
foam furniture, bedding, chair cushions, and shoe soles. Extruded sheets of
polystyrene are highly consumed for packaging foam, which may offer substantial
opportunities for the product in the coming years.

Regional Analysis
The Blowing
Agents Market Growth is spanned across five regions: Asia Pacific,
North America, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa.
Asia Pacific dominated the global
Blowing Agents Industry in 2016 on account of the high demand from the
automotive and building & construction industry in the region.
Europe was the second leading
market in 2016 due to the high production and sales of the automotive parts in
countries such as Germany, Italy, U.K, France, and others.
The high demand from automotive
and aerospace industry is expected to drive the Blowing Agents Industry in the
North American region. Furthermore, the rebound in construction activities in
the region is likely to fuel the market growth during the forecast period
2018-2023.
