Concrete Superplasticizer Market 2013 – 2019 | Page 2

REPORT DESCRIPTION Superplasticizers are the polymers used as dispersants to improve the flow efficiency of the suspensions by reducing the aggregation of the particles. These are mostly used as admixtures to concretes which improves the strength of the concrete in its’ applications. Concrete superplasticizers are mainly of five types which include modified lignosulfonates, sulfonated melamine formaldehydes, polycarboxylic acids, sulfonated naphthalene formaldehydes and others. The concrete superplasticizers market can be classified based on applications such as high performance, self compacting, precast, ready mix and others. The driving factors for the concrete superplasticizer market are growing application scope and research & development activities to increase the efficiency and ever-growing demand from the construction industry. The construction industry is the major driver owing to the increasing population and rapid infrastructure needed to accommodate the population. Raw material price volatility and the regulations regarding handling and transportation of the raw materials are the restraints for the market. As the raw materials are derived from the petrochemicals, the prices are anticipated to remain volatile. Technological advances and inventions are expected to create the opportunities in the wide range of applications.
