Dublin, Oct. 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/bst97q/acrylic_acid_and)
has announced the addition of the
"Acrylic Acid & Its Derivatives Market - By Derivative Types
(Esters/Acrylates - Methyl, Ethyl, Butyl, 2-EH; Polymers -
Elastomers, SAP, Water Treatment Polymers; Other Derivatives),
Applications & Geography - Global Trends & Forecast to
2018" report to their offering.
Acrylic acid and its derivatives are widely used in industrial
processing. These are also used in surface coatings, adhesives
& sealants, etc. Growing demands in super absorbent polymers
are expected to be the major drivers for the market growth.
The major markets for acrylic acid and its derivatives include
surface coatings, adhesives, plastic additives and co-monomers.
Acrylic esters include methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, ethyl
acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2-EHA) and others. It is also used
to produce polyacrylic acid or cross-linked polyacrylic acid
compounds, which are used in the manufacture of super absorbent
polymers. These polymers have wide range of applications in
hygienic products, detergents, and waste water treatment
chemicals.

Rising demand of super absorbent polymers
Substitution to higher performance formulations and increasing
building and construction industries in emerging countries are the
factors driving acrylic polymers into coatings and sealants.
However, growing demand for baby diapers in emerging countries such
as China and South Korea has been increasing the demand for SAPs
and WTPs. This led to growing preference of super absorbent
polymers across the globe.
