Global Anti-Block Additive Market: Overview

Anti-blocking is used to prevent film sheets to stick together. Polyolefin films tend to adhere to each other owing to strong electrostatic charges when being in close contact. The high temperature, pressure, and contact/processing time is resulting into high tendency to stick to each other.

In order to avoid adherence of layers due to a close contact particulate matter is introduced into film in a highly diluted concentration. Due to this a micro-rough surface is created and contact area of film layers is minimized. Minerals used for that application have little/no impact on mechanical properties of the film. The material should not deteriorate transparency, haze, color, gloss of film, and should be compatible with film-processing process.

Several minerals are used for this purpose: talc, calcined kaolin, cristobalite, precipitated silica, diatomaceous earth, mica, calcium carbonates, calcium sulfate (anhydrite), magnesium carbonate, magnesium sulfate, and feldspars.

Global Anti-Block Additive Market: Dynamics

Technological advancements in packaging materials and increasing demand for advanced packaging solution in food and pharmaceutical industries are major factor expected to drive growth of the global market. In addition, increasing spending capacity, high disposable income of people is estimated to fuel the demand for the packaged food during the forecast period.

Moreover, upsurge in demand for agricultural greenhouse is further expected to propel the growth of the global anti-block additives market.

However, high dosage level of inorganic anti-block additive is a major factor expected to limit adoption of anti-block additives market which is expected to hamper growth of the global market.

In addition, manufacturers approach towards new alternatives in order to deliver high resistance to blocking and deliver optimum clarity is another factor expected to limit growth of global anti-block additives market.

Global Anti-Block Additives Market: Segment

Among the product type segments, the organic segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Among the polymer type segments, the LDPE segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Among the application segments, the packaging segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Global Anti-Block Additives Market: Region

The market in North America is expected to dominate in the global market and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to increasing demand from food manufacturers and presence of major manufacturers operating in the countries in this region. In addition, increasing expansion activities through strategic merger and acquisition activities is expected to further support growth of the target market in this region to certain extent.

The market in Asia Pacific is expected to witness fastest growth, owing to increasing government expenditure on pharmaceutical sector, coupled with increasing demand from pharmaceutical manufacturers and presence of prominent players operating in emerging economies in this region.
