According to a new report, published by KBV research, The Global Linear Polymers Market size is expected to reach $357.3 billion by 2030, rising at a market growth of 4.1% CAGR during the forecast period. In the year 2022, the market attained a volume of 1,81,801.5 Kilo Tonnes, experiencing a growth of 2.9% (2019-2022).
The Ring-Opening Polymerization segment is registering a CAGR of 4.6% during (2023 - 2030). Ring-opening polymerization allows for good control over the molecular weight of the resulting polymer. This control is essential for tailoring the properties of the polymer for specific applications. Polydispersity, which measures the distribution of molecular weights in a polymer sample, tends to be lower in ring-opening polymerization than other polymerization methods. This results in more uniform and predictable properties. Ring-opening polymerization can tolerate a variety of functional groups present in the monomer, allowing for the incorporation of specific chemical functionalities into the polymer chain.
The Polyethylene segment is leading the Global Linear Polymers Market by Type in 2022; thereby, achieving a market value of $136.6 billion by 2030. Polystyrene is a polymer of repeating units of styrene, a hydrocarbon monomer. The chemical structure of styrene contributes to the polymer's properties. Polystyrene has low thermal conductivity, making it an effective insulating material. This property is utilized in applications ranging from packaging materials to building insulation. Polystyrene is inexpensive, contributing to its affordability and widespread use in various industries.
The Automotive segment is exhibiting a CAGR of 5.8% during (2023 - 2030). These polymers, particularly high-performance engineering plastics, offer a lightweight alternative to traditional materials like metal. This weight reduction contributes to improved fuel efficiency, reducing overall vehicle emissions. Certain linear polymers, including elastomers and foams, dampen noise, absorb vibrations, and reduce harshness in the vehicle interior. Polymers with good electrical insulation properties, like polyethylene and polypropylene, are used in cable insulation, connectors, and other electrical components, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the vehicle's electrical systems.
The Asia Pacific market dominated the Global Linear Polymers Market by Region in 2022 and would continue to be a dominant market till 2030; thereby, achieving a market value of $153,044.9 million by 2030. The North America market is anticipated to grow a CAGR of 3.4% during (2023 - 2030). Additionally, The Europe market would experience a CAGR of 3.8% during (2023 - 2030).
