Key Drivers of Asia Pacific Solvents Market

Increasing demand for paints, coatings, and printing inks is expected to drive the solvents market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period. Around 50% of the total solvents produced are used in the manufacture of paints, coatings, and printing inks in Asia Pacific. Solvents dissolve or disperse different components such as binders, additives, pigments, and extenders used in the formulation of paints and coatings. They also help in speeding up the curing and drying process, due to which the demand for solvents is increasing. Moreover, the paints & coatings industry in Asia Pacific is expected to expand at a significant rate in the near future, owing to rapid industrialization and urbanization in the region, especially in developing countries such as China and India. Demand for industrial paints is also increasing due to ongoing industrialization in Asia Pacific. Thus, these factors are projected to drive the demand for paints and coatings in the region from 2019 to 2027. This would result in increase in the demand for quick-drying paints in the region, which is expected to boost the solvents market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for adhesives and sealants in the industrial sector is expected to drive the market in the region during the forecast period. Adhesives and sealants is another key end-user of solvents in the Asia Pacific region. Solvents are used in adhesives and sealants to improve their efficiency at low temperatures, thereby maintaining an evaporation rate for better performance. Aromatic solvents are largely used in the adhesives industry, due to their high evaporation rates, which causes rise in the viscosity of adhesive films. Moreover, wetting of surface is a crucial property of an adhesive, which is achieved by dispersing or dissolving the polymer in a suitable solvent. Rising industrialization in the region, especially in developing countries such as China and India, is expected to drive the demand for adhesives and sealants in Asia Pacific during the forecast period. Thus, increasing demand for adhesives and sealants is likely to drive the solvents market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period.

China to be a Highly Lucrative Country of Asia Pacific Solvents Market

China dominated the solvents market in Asia Pacific in 2018. The country is anticipated to continue its dominance in the near future. This can be ascribed to increase in the consumption of paints and coatings along with the rising demand for adhesives and sealants from industries such as construction and packaging in the region. The India and ASEAN markets are likely to be moderately attractive during the forecast period, while Rest of Asia Pacific and Japan are likely to be less attractive markets during the forecast period.
