What Is Pigment Dispersion?
Pigment dispersions are fine dispersions of pigment in aqueous, solvent, or universal paint systems. Pigments are made up of tiny pieces that are soluble and dispersed within materials like paint to give you paint colors. All quality paints require dispersion during manufacture so that the paint maintains its quality, holds onto its vital colors, and coats the product or material effectively.
Tecnavio analysts forecast the global pigment additives market to post a CAGR of more than 6% during the forecast period, according to their latest market research report in London.
The development of innovative products is one of the major trends being witnessed in the global pigment additives market from 2018-to 2022.
Pigments are crucial to printing inks, textile, paint and coatings, and plastics industries. Vendors offer new varieties of pigments to increase their market shares and stay ahead of the competition. BASF launched a series of organic pigments which are used by the food and toy industries. These pigments are halogen-free and offer excellent heat stability and color, and are approved by regulatory bodies such as FDA and REACH.
According to Technavio paint company analysts, one of the key factors contributing to the growth of the global pigment additives market is the increasing demand for pigments from the paints and coatings industry:
Global pigment additives market: Increasing demand for pigments from the paints and coatings industry
Paints and coatings are chemicals that enhance the aesthetic value of substrates and offer various functional benefits such as conduction, reflection, anti-skid, insulation, and light absorption. They are used in many applications including buildings, cars, household appliances, airplanes, computers, ships, microchips, and printed circuit boards. Paints and coatings are an integral part of many end-user industries such as construction, automotive, and aerospace.
According to a senior analyst at Technavio for research on chemicals and materials, Pigments help improve the opacity, texture, and pseudoplastic flow of paints and pigments. Pigments are soluble colorants, which are usually available in powder form. The increasing demand for paints and coatings will drive the use of pigment additives during the forecast period.
