Based on types, the urethane-modified segment is projected to be the largest segment of the FER market, in terms of both value and volume, during the forecast period. It is widely used as FER in the automotive and building & construction industries. The increasing demand for composites in the automotive sector and improved properties of FER, such as flexibility and water resistance, drive the demand for urethane-modified FERs.

Adhesives & sealants

Adhesives & sealants are one of the most important applications of flexible epoxy resin. Flexible epoxy resin-based adhesives can easily bond many substrates and sometimes be modified to achieve widely varying properties. Flexible epoxy resins are used to produce high-strength epoxy adhesives, which are the most extensively used structural adhesives. These adhesives have high demand owing to their strong bonding capabilities and high chemical and heat resistance. They are extensively used in industries, such as aerospace, automotive, wind power, and electrical & electronics. Ease of application of epoxy adhesives has encouraged their commercialization, thereby driving the market. These adhesives are developed to cater to a wide range of applications and operating conditions and are commonly used as either one-component or two-component systems.

Composites

A composite material is made from two or more materials with different physical or chemical properties that, when combined, forms a new material in which the characteristics of the individual materials are retained. The new material is stronger, lighter, and less expensive than the individual constituent material. Flexible epoxy composite materials are used in the construction of buildings, bridges, and structures, such as boat hulls, swimming pool panels, race car bodies, shower stalls, bathtubs, storage tanks, imitation granite, and cultured marble sinks and countertops.
