Composite Adhesives Market Overview
The global composite adhesive market size was valued at USD 3.38 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% from 2022 to 2030. The Composite Adhesives Market is expected to grow at a moderate rate over the next few years. Composite adhesives are the substances used to adhere composites to one another and to a variety of substrates. They come in a variety of forms, including liquid, paste, and film. Based on the number of components, adhesives are divided into two categories. Two-component adhesives consist of a resin and a hardener that can cure at room temperature or at high temperatures. Pre-mixed one-component adhesives can only be cured at high temperatures (usually 250-300°F). Even when exposed to harsh environments, composite adhesives deliver unrivalled mechanical strength and performance. Epoxy adhesives offer good bonding with a variety of substrates, as well as excellent durability and strength with low shrinkage, chemical, heat, and weather resistance, and electrical insulation. Polyurethane adhesives are popular in marine applications because of their ability to bond even in high moisture environments, excellent bonding with non-porous materials like wood, strong UV resistance, and low VOC content. Faster cure, high adhesion, and a strong thermoplastic with great resistance to shear, peel, and impact stresses are all advantages of methyl methacrylate adhesives. The global composite adhesives market is likely to be driven by the rising popularity of composites in various end-use sectors due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, low cost, and ease of manufacturing.
